| - If I was asked a week ago what I thought about this place I would have rated it 5 stars, however, after our experience tonight if I could give them a zero star rating if I could.
The only upside to this place is the horse and bull riding, but you can get that over at Buffalo Chip and be treated with respect by staff.
Megan, the bartender, is the sole reason why they are receiving such a poor review. There were two of us and our dogs on the patio. Our dogs are well behaved (not my opinion, the opinion of the approximately 20 people who said hi to them over the course of the evening). From the beginning the service was subpar. Yes it's bike week, but the bar was less than 1/3 full. Another staff member or possibly Megan's boyfriend, who was incredibly intoxicated, decided to bring his dog over to our dogs without asking if it was okay. Immediately the dog was aggressive. Pulling at the end on his leash, standing on his rear legs, hackles up (the fur all down a dogs back), tail completely stiff and erect and staring intently at our dogs. All very typical behavior of a dog that any reputable trainer would not consider dog friendly. We were told Max, the dog, was friendly. My response was "don't let your dog over here." When he was continued to allow to drag his owner over, I stood up between my dogs and max and told the owner to pull him away. At that point he did and sat a few bar stools down from us, while the dog continued to be out of control. After several minutes Megan decided to be incredibly rude and defend the dogs behavior. As a professional who has done this for 7 years and trained over 10,000 animals and 67 different species I explained that despite the fact she thinks her dog was abused the behavior is inexcusable. She continued to be rude and cuss at us. She threw the tab at us, mumbled something which we couldn't understand and walked away. At that point we paid our tab and were walking out. We were chased down again by the guy being dragged at the end of Max's leash. Again, he was told to back up and that we were not going to introduce our dogs. He continued to follow us out to the parking lot. We walked out of the restaurant without an incident, but I have no doubt in my mind there would have been one if we allowed the interaction to continue.
If you are looking for a dog friendly bar or restaurant to go to there are PLENTY around the Valley with good food and entertainment with staff who are respectful. Here are a few suggestions:
Harolds
Any of the OHSO locations
Charr
Peaks and Valleys
Half Moon
Save your money, time, gas and potentially your dogs life and go to one of those places.
This place has potential, but toxic employees like Megan will cause the death of Outlaw Annie's.
