Dogs

One of my favorite things about living in Switzerland is how dogs are allowed to go into stores and restaurants, etc. Today I saw an especially good example of this. As I walked to my German class this morning I passed a candy store in the train station. It was the kind where you can choose the candy you want from bulk bins and have it weighed at the cash register. Of course it was mobbed with kids, but also a beautiful golden retriever who was hanging out with his/her owner (the only adult in the store). He was about Grady's size, and all I could do was smile when I pictured Grady trying to control himself in a candy store. Is that kind of like a bull in a china shop?
