I was in a department store and the employee yelled at me to take my dog out of the cart. I understood that it was not allowed. That was fine but she insisted I leave and kept yelling, get your dog out. I was then searched for stolen items, of course nothing was found. I live in a small town and this is very embarassing and distrubing
