Paralympian and guide dog banned from Sainsburys - Catherine - 06-09-2019
A blind skiing champion and his guide dog walked into a Sainsbury Store and were stopped by a security guard.
The skier was told he could not bring his dog into the store. How is this still happening in 2019!

A piece of irony, Sainsbury is a sponsor of the special Olympics. They will put up money to help a paralympian compete, but they won't let him shop with dignity in their stores. They have apologized, but they need to make sure nothing like this happens again.
