Today was my 4th visit to Chaumette and I've enjoyed each outing (especially the live entertainment); as well as brought someone new each time I've visited. Well today while dining, there was a dog walking on the patio not accompanied by anyone and I'll be the first to tell anyone, I'm afraid of dogs and am not an animal lover.

One of the guests in my party asked if the dog could be removed and was informed that it was the owners dog. I remember one of the staff coming onto the patio and being told by another staff that the dog had gone to the front. Within 20 minutes the dog had returned still unaccompanied.

At that point, I removed myself from the table and went on the inside. My server asked me what was wrong and I told her. It appeared to be no big deal to anyone except me and my party. I finished my meal on the inside which defeated my purpose of being at the winery, paid my tab and left. I don't like being uncomfortable in any environment and therefore will not be returning.
