Poor Elsie.....spending all of Alex's retirement on fines. The reality is that old people rarely get it. There was a day long ago in a different world when just opening your back door and letting the dog out without any confinement or restraint was the norm. My family did it and the dog wandered a good part of the day and then came home to eat. Those simpler times are long gone and it's too bad for some and good for others.

Poor Elsie indeed. Did she need the public embarrasment of front page news?
