There is the canine good citizen test that many people do with their dogs.
Which means nothing when it comes to places that serve and sell food as the issue is the fecal bacterial cultures that spread when dogs lick their butts and then lick their feet as well as any allergy concerns.
Your dog could be the best behaved dog in the world and they still can’t get around biological realities.
The same bacteria on everyone's shoes...
No, the soles of my shoes aren’t warm enough to keep them alive.
If the dogs are spreading them with their feet then your shoes are picking them up. They may not survive that long but they are getting transported. Everything dogs walk on, so do we.
Again, not really because the nature if shoes and foot skin provide entirely different surfaces for bacterial adhesion. For example my current shoes soles aren’t porous like my feet are.
Oh good. So you're willing to eat off the soles of your shoes?
More willing to eat off the soles of my shoes than off a dog's paw.
