Even dining out is going to the dogs

WHILE the Kids on Board column highlighted parents who discipline their children (“Before Mom, Pop and Tots Wear Out Their Welcome,” April 2], many young parents today and even grandparents ignore their unruly kids.
At the very least, restaurant hostesses and hosts should seat these diners away from the center of the dining room.
However, one of the newest nagging problems when dining out is the fact that outdoor dining areas of popular eating establishments have been taken over by lonely dog owners and their animals.
On typical weekends and evenings, patio seating areas are littered with smelly dogs occupying an outdoor seat at the table while being hand-fed or lying by their owners’ legs panting.
