I purposely avoid businesses that advertise with pets

If I get a flyer, or any kind of ad on social media or youtube that advertises with a pet, I immediately blacklist that business and will never give them hard earned money.

Some examples;

Subaru had a radio ad that had a line that goes "...the man in your life" followed by a dog barking. That immediately disgusted me and I will never buy a Subaru, what else would Subaru be implying?

A flooring store has a "store dog" that roams around. I want to be able to browse flooring without a dog begging for food and attention, or the salesperson excusing themself in the middle of a sale because they need to feed the dog or give them attention (true story). They lost out on a job that was well over $10k.

Any restaurant or food establishment where the owners are clearly pet owners. Most of the time I can tell because their black uniform or apron has pet hair all over it. Disgusting and a health hazard.

Any hotel that advertises as "pet friendly" I completely avoid. Because the rooms often have a stench afterwards and I still find pet hair everywhere.

Maybe advertising with a dog or a cat gets you more business, but it won't get mine. In fact I will purposely AVOID your business.
