Public Enemy Number 1

Pictured here is the rare and dangerous killer Yorkie--all 7 pounds of her. SHe is a terror to squirrels, sticks and snacks (especially the snacks).

However, on Sunday Minnetonka's finest felt compelled to issue her a citation for being off her leash. Granted she was disconnected from her mistress, but she was less than three feet away on a trail in a park.

The cops chased her down in a SUV (something that drives me crazy when I meet them during a run down the trails). There is no room for anybody else when you meet them in their Suburbans on a running trail.

I'm not quite sure what happened to common sense, but the city has decided to strictly enforce leash laws. Meanwhile a coyote was running loose elsewhere in the park. I guess leash laws don't apply there.
