This is what I was thinking. Regardless if the dog was gay or not, they're not usually allowed in restaurants anyway.
He had a friend with him, and I'm sure the staff would be more than happy to walk him to his seat. The only problem is that the dog would be left chained up alone outside for up to an hour, which sucks for the dog, but isn't really animal cruelty or anything.

I've had more than one meal with my GF's dog near, and it's really far from disgusting. The guide dog would leave you totally alone, and this one is always begging for food. In fact, this lil' guy makes it a bit more enjoyable.
Guide dogs are specifically trained to be a blind person's partner, and as such, they get a different treatment. It's like on public transport, or other places where the guy can't see, and unluckily, that's everywhere. Denying the blind guy to eat in a place because he's gay is ridiculous. BECAUSE HIS DOG IS GAY is just mocking him.
Right, but that doesn't mean that they're allowed in restaurants. They could be the most well behaved and trained dog in the world, but some customers would still feel uncomfortable to enter somewhere that allows dogs inside. I know, it's a little dumb, but some people are really paranoid about dog hair and stuff finding their way into the food. Some people are allergic to dogs, and woiuld never imagine bumping into one in such a place.
A hairy guy without a shirt isn't harming anyone either, but unless it's a beach shop or something, I'm sure restaurants would ask him to put a shirt on before entering.
