Sorry you had a bad experience with our staff. We sincerely apologize for anything we did that caused you distress. None of us seem to remember the specific incident but we usually are a dog and customer-friendly place and even offer dog treats to four-legged friends. Again, we apologize for the incident and hope that you will give Capitol Hill Books another chance.

I usually order my books online and when I read about your store, which happens to be in my neighbourhood I was really excited to check it out and bring my dog. However, I was really disappointed when entering teh store I was not even greeted by the staff, who was not busy at the moment, but just kept on staring at one point. I have a puppy, who is always excited to meet new people and excitingly jumped with her front paws on teh counter. An elderly lady began histerically screaming “bad dog, bad dog” and told us we are not allowed in the store. For people claiming love for pets that seemed a bit untolerant to me. I walked out very disappointed. You would think that in a bad economy good customer service will be beyond expectations, but I guess not in this case.

Not to mention Saul Bellow’s “Seize the Day.” I think Wally does that quite well.

I like the fact that you posed him in front of Zadie Smith’s On Beauty.
