PICK OF THE WEEK: Dog allowed back at pub; has to wear special vest

By Agencies

A dog that was banned from going into a pub has been allowed back in — as long as she wears a bright yellow vest. Hatty the Lakeland Terrier used to visit the pub with her owner all the time, but she started munching the pub’s beer mats. The owner of the pub decided Hatty was making too much mess and costing him too much money in replacement mats. He banned Hatty from the pub, but changed his mind after other customers said they wanted her to come back. But pub boss Nigel McLelland wouldn’t let her back without being able to keep an eye on what Hatty was up to. So he says she has to wear a bright yellow vest like builders do when they’re working.
