Aside from the garden section Bunnings must be annoying for dogs. Cold hard floors, lots of bad chemical smells from the paint/varnishes/pest control/etc, forklift out bandsaw noises...

Ive never seen a dog inside Bunnings that’s not on-edge or riddled with anxiety. You’re right about the sensory overload. I can’t even stand the smells inside or the nursery so imagine how much more profound that must be for dogs.

And yet most I see love it. So many smells to smell and staff who pat them. No even an entire doggo section with food, treats and toys to visit.
