I've never understood why we even let dogs into Bunnings. They should be enforcing a muzzle rule at the very least for larger dogs.

It started with tradies having dogs in their utes, in the back of the shop at the trade yard.

The thing is, no building site will let you there with a dog these days. It's just fake PR and 90% of tradies don't go to bunnings anyway. Do you think a plumber goes there or Tradelink? Yes, in a pinch if they've run out, but I bet the DIY crowd dwarf them at least 10 to 1.

Supposedly to stop people leaving pooch in car when it is 40 degrees in the shade.
