My opinion on dogs in public. If it is not designated a dog park, is a location without other people, or such the dog should be on a leash and under control. I love to see dogs running around having fun, but you never know when one of the people walking by, standing around is someone who can't stand dogs and will become violent towards it if it gets even near that person.
I trained my dog when hiking to wander freely, but if it saw/heard people he would come back to me or stand still and wait for me to catch up to put a leash on him. As far as in stores, in general, unless it's a seeing-eye dog I don't see reasons for pets to be in most stores. Unless the store advertises as being pet friendly.
