Guide Dogs Only Sign

Which is which? A sign for the blind person to see, or for his/her guide dog to read? Isn’t it ironic? That’s like putting up a no fishing sign in a desert. Perhaps the sign has a deeper meaning to it, maybe what they meant was – only guide dogs are allowed, no people or other dogs allowed!

    I assume that the Guide dogs sign is for the people not blind to see so they don’t say something/yell at a blind person with a dog. The blind person won’t see the no dogs sign so it doesn’t effect him.

    why would any stranger/customer yell or complain if a blind person decided to bring his/her dog into a shop? Most people understand their situation, I doubt the owner of the shop would complain too.

    I read somewhere the purpose of displaying the sign is to show “we’re business friendly”, that’s all. Most shops allow guide dogs to enter, or they will be sued for discrimination.
