    Seems every time I ankle carry and go in the house, when our dogs greet me they always give the ankle with the gun the once over compared to the other ankle. Anyone else notice this with their dogs?

    I don't ankle carry, but... Yeah, the pup sticks his nose in anything remotely interesting. As a Newf, his nose is more waist-high.

    Do NOT keep anything edible in a jacket pocket. You might lose the jacket.

    My pup is neutered, so no once over of ankles or any other parts. :p

    But if there is anything they consider food, watch out.

    Ankle carry is definitely a young man’s game. It’s a lot further to my ankle than it use to be and even if I get down there and back up I’m winded and dizzy.
    I feel your pain brother!! Some guys have a six pack.....I have a keg....

    In no state is it illegal for a dog to carry a handgun.
    I see a Yorkie with a HK P2K 9mm and a six-pack of spare mags in my future! "Good afternoon officer... please show me the code where my Yorkie is prohibited from open carry"!
    See that cat across the way? It ain't movin cause it knows that an open carry Yorkie is bad ass!

    I smell a loophole. Or is that a doggy biscuit?
    I think the dog would count as a handbag or the like, and if it is your property in proximity to you it would probably be classed as off body carry, with extra capacity for spare magazines and cuteness. Your dog might also not be as careful as you would be in regards to proper firearms retention.

    The only time I ankle carry (when I do carry) is when I have my wallet in my pants pocket

    Seen to many guys lift up their shirt and have a gun showing, and a few people giving strange looks when they see the gun

    If I have my wallet in my jacket or vest I carry on the hip
