I hate dog owners who bring their dogs freaking everywhere

Seriously, why did this suddenly become the norm? Where did this sense of entitlement come from? Up until less than a decade ago it was accepted that if you want to enter an indoor public space like a store, you leave your dog at home (or leave it in your car, or leave it tied up outside the store until you're done). And no dog owner had a problem with that.

​I don't wanna do my grocery shopping knowing that someone's dog may have pressed its slimy nose up against the produce. I don't wanna go to a cafe to relax and read a book while sipping tea, only to have my experience be interrupted by a dog barking its head off. I have a friend who works at a movie theater, and recently a customer tried to sneak her dog into the theater by carrying it in her purse. AT A MOVIE THEATER. Like what are you gonna do if your dog starts barking in the middle of the movie? Would you not feel embarrassed and ashamed?

Just leave your dogs at home, people. I promise your dog isn't going to explode just because it was home alone for a couple hours. And if your dog actually has such bad separation anxiety that it can't handle being without you for a short amount of time, that's your responsibility to train it out of them, because properly training your dog is a standard part of being a dog owner.

How long are people waiting for the rent supplement these days?

Has anyone applied for the Canada-Nova Scotia Targeted Housing Benefit recently? If so, how long did it take for you to get approved? I remember hearing it was common for people to wait an absurd amount of time like 6 months, but that was a while ago. I'm curious if it's gotten any better?
