Wilko announces big change to store rules - but it leaves shoppers divided
09.02.2022 - 15:25 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Wilko has announced a new policy that has affected 248 stores nationwide, including a select few Scottish locations.
From Monday, February 7, the home and garden retailer confirmed that pets are officially welcome in a variety of stores across the country for the very first time.
Three stores in Scotland are now officially pet friendly, meaning shoppers can take their furry friends into the Ayr, Fort Kinnaird and Castle Douglas stores.
Wilko has said that pets will be able to browse with their human companions in the participating stores, with the exception of the food aisles.
The retailer has said that the decision to roll-out the change to a majority of its stores follows a successful pilot at two locations.
While it's good news for pet owners, the policy has been met with a divided response from shoppers who have debated the behaviour of family pets.
Announcing the change on Facebook, Wilko wrote: "A pet is more than just a pet, they’re family. That’s why we’ve decided to welcome pets in-store at 248 of our locations.
"We hope that shoppers will enjoy bringing their furry friends along with them. Please check for new signage at the entrance of your local store to see if they are participating."
The post has been liked 16,000 times and received and nearly 10,000 comments from shoppers who are either all for the idea or a little more against it.
"Brilliant wish all shops would do this xx", wrote one shopper who welcomed the news.
"What a brilliant idea! I really don't like being among loads of people so having a few dogs about will make me feel much more relaxed", said another positive shopper.
While a third commented: "Love this, would much rather shop with dogs at least the dogs will be on leads and kept under control
