It didn't start out well," said David Long, describing Monday, when he and his service dog, Harry, went to a Circle K on Two Notch Road.
Long was looking for a cup of coffee but found a fight.
"The clerk noticed Harry, didn't see his vest, and said, 'You're going to have to take your dog outside,'" said Long. "I said, 'He is a certified service dog, it's legal for him to be in here, so that's the way it's gonna' be,' and she didn't want to hear it. She said 'Obviously you're not blind, so he needs to wait outside.'"

This man is a vet, he was on the search and recovery team at the Pentagon after 9/11....he was almost killed in Iraq...he suffers from true PTSD... but no...he's not blind as the clerk ever so ignorantly stated when she told him to take his service dog out of the store! :banghead:
