			I have no real issue with it, provided that they are leashed and kept on the leash for the duration of the store visit.  
 
However, I think that for a work environment, if someone truly is allergic, then precautions should be made for them (either keeping the pet in an area in which that person will not go, or by not bringing the pet at all).  If someone has an illness, I think it's unfair to punish them so you can have your dog at work with you. 
 
That being said, I don't want your dog, cat, chinchilla, potbelly pig or any other small critter in my restaurant or my supermarket--just a little too unsanitary for my personal comfort.
