Default Bringing Dozy to local pet store?

Hi,

I've often thought about taking Dozy with me to our local Petsmart/Petco but never have. Has anyone done this and is it safe?

Thanks!

Ok. I'm glad I asked then. Definitely won't be doing it. You're right, it is defintely not worth it. Thanks!!

I agree! I would never take my birdies anywhere other birds are or have recently been. Pet stores are big no-no's, IMO!

Something told me probably not a good idea. That is why I asked. Thanks. I love my little girl too much too risk illness.
