Although I wouldn't recommend it, I'll admit to having let my dog's leash drag momentarily on a rare occasion. Sometimes you're carrying a lot of stuff, plus she had two dogs with her, which she wasn't used to. The leash probably dropped, she knew that the dog would follow closely anyway, so she thought "I'll just pick it up in a second".

Not saying it is a good thing to do, but humans make mistakes and we can't all be prefect all of the time.
