Episode 183: Vehicular Hound Inside

Episode 183

5th November 2014

Should an ailing dog be given free reign when riding in the car?

Episode notes

Alexa brings the case against her mom, Leslie. Leslie loves her dog Boo and takes her everywhere. Alexa says her mom allows Boo to do whatever she wants, like riding in the front seat of the car and often in her mom’s lap. She believes this behavior is unsafe, both for her mom and the dog. Leslie claims she has Boo’s well being in mind, and that her behavior is perfectly fine. Who’s right? Who’s wrong?

Thanks to Kathleen Keating for suggesting this week’s case name! To suggest a title for a future episode, like Judge John Hodgman on Facebook. We regularly put a call for submissions.

WHERE CAN I SEE JUDGE HODGMAN IN REAL LIFE?
