The warmest greeting I got was was from a golden retriever, no human in the "store" greeted me. I felt like the store people didn't need my business, although I was ready to buy any and everything. Maybe they didn't need my money...too bad they didn't know my dog daycare business has hosted their pups and has raised funds for their organization. Even so, is your retail business there to raise money or for you to hang out? I know now to raise money for other dog rescues that actually need it and utilize the funds responsibly.
