Maybe the older person can't walk, indeed, and obviously, that same owner might not recognize how dangerous this practice is. When I lived in CA, there was an older gentleman who did something similar. The owner was driving his car, the dog was attached to a leash that the driver held as he drove up the street. Alas, the dog was in the street...in the way of oncoming traffic.
Might be nice if a neighbor could take the pooch for a walk. One of the problems aging pet owners might be faced with.
