Dogs Are Officially Banned From Boca Raton Town Center Mall. But Selfish, Rude People Keep Bringing Them Inside…
BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — God love Boca Raton Town Center Mall. It used to be that you’d go to a dumpster if you wanted to see trash. But now you can experience the unclean, smelly fun of a dump site at a place that sells Rolex watches. Simon Property Group (NYSE:SPG) just keeps upping the ante by looking the other way when dogs are inexplicably brought in for a walk — despite its policy that dogs are prohibited. We wonder: are people who bring dogs in the mall now officially illegals? We start this edition of Boca Rudeton with a new sign:
Even though there’s a Lens Crafters, it looks like lots of people are having optical problems in the mall. Like this guy who walked his dog over to the Starbucks kiosk.
The scofflaw problem continues at Macy’s, where this manly man is looking at purses — and so is his dog. We realize the man may just be killing time while his significant other shops — but that doesn’t answer the question: why is this dog in Macy’s?
Boca Rudeton continues at The Mall! These folks kind of look like some sort of Dana Carvey comedy from decades ago. But there’s nothing funny about fluffy-wuffy. Why is this dog in the mall? And separately, did the blond hair on both fo them come from the same bottle?
And one more from Boca Raton Town Center Mall. Our tipster says this woman was holding her dog wayyyyy tooo close to food in the food court. The dog shouldn’t even be in the mall, so it’s doubly bad that it’s in the food court. But hey, the woman drinks Evian, so at least she can pretend to care about health.
At Whole Foods on Glades Road in Boca Raton, our tipster wants to know why this woman is walking her dog, ignoring the child, and blabbing on the phone — all at the same time. All excellent questions. We of course note that the kid may not belong to her, but we see no other adults nearby, and we aren’t aware of missing child reports on the day this was taken.
At the new B.J.’s in Boynton Beach, we have to wonder why the dog is in the store — let alone the food area of the store. We also wonder why this woman seems to be unable to control the dog. That lunge looks like a middle school gym teacher showing kids how to get ready for the 50 yard dash.
Also at B.J.’s, our tipster wants to know why this woman brought THREE DOGS with her! We’d like to know, too. This seems to be grossly illegal. And just plain gross.
Let’s stop at Doris’ market in Boca Raton. Our tipster at Doris’ wants to know why this man has this dog inside the food market — likely violating Florida law, let alone why the dog is sniffing people. True service dogs are trained to behave. Not to sniff people.
What would Boca Rudeton be without Publix? Despite huge signs that remind customers that pets are BANNED, this woman apparently couldn’t care less. She was seen in the Publix on Spanish River Boulevard.
In our parking section, we are full of idiot South Florida drivers who clearly are in need of driving help and mental health care.
Example: This Chevy with Florida plate IJ66QE. The driver decided to make a space in this shopping center off of Glades Road. Why isn’t the car towed? What makes this person think that parking here is okay?
Also parking illegally at Delray Marketplace in West Delray Beach, this idiot in a blue Honda with license plate DJ95ZF. C’mon. Really? Do you think the shiny blue Honda Civic is cool enough to take two parking spaces? This is Boca/Delray. Not Cherry Hill, NJ.
At the shopping center at Yamato and 441, home to CVS and Dunkin’, we find a Kia parked idiotically by its driver. If you drive a Kia K5 with Florida plate HHRB58, maybe learn how to park.
So who is this week’s winner of Boca Rudeton? It’s none other than the woman with three dogs in one shopping cart at B.J.’s in Boynton Beach. She’s a very, very special person. We know she’s special because she has three dogs in one shopping cart. What does she win?
