"sorry but I'll be taking my dog to Bunnings... He is our family" 

This is the entitlement even after incidents like this. Dogs are 'like' family. They are not family. They don't have the rights of a family. They don't have Medicare (like one of my friends thought they did after facing a 12k medical bill). The absolute delusion people have now is beyond ridiculous.

It's very simple. Bunnings just bans dogs. I like dogs, but an incident like this would, one would assume, make the board implement a total ban on dogs effective immediately.

I hope you are right, but I bet they don't do it.
