However, I can see both sides. It is a damn shame that in this day and age you can't leave your dog tied up outside a shop anymore without the fear of it being stolen, teased, hurt etc 
Having said that, you are responsible for keeping your dog safe and because of the type of world we now live in, it is a bit unwise to leave them alone where other people can become involved.

I was thinking about this thread, then thought, I can imagine the response this would have got 30 years ago, things just seemed so much simpler then,
have people really changed that much?

It is more the attitude and the fact she fed her anything at all that bothers me. she was using the puppy as something to entertain her son whilst she had a fag, i do not think that she actually THOUGHT at all!!
