Is the loop dog friendly?

Yes

There are a few locations (books a million for example) that have outdoor seating. However, you may not bring a dog unless its a service dog into businesses with the exception if petco. You can walk your dog on a leash around the area, though. :)

I think yes..specially if you going to pet smart

Unless it's a service dog, don't see a reason to take a dog there

With a service animal/ESA sure, other than that, I would recommend to phone ahead to get each stores policy on their individual store policy pertaining to animals. I hope this helped.

I believe so but not all shops are

Crowded, but I say yes

I think so
