You could be liable


Recommended Posts

I would go and see his vet to make sure the guy is not trying to have you over, if 600 quid is right then the vet is having him over, in that case as your dog caused the injury i would pay 200 pounds.

Too many people try and shirk responsibility these days and i think if people don't have honour than really we hav'nt progressed much from apes.

Shepp

me personally would tell him to fu*k off! :protest:

If £600 is what he says then he's got no insurance either -otherwise he'd be looking at paying his excess. Also he cannot hold you responsible- if his dog was off lead & didnt return when called his dog is not under control. That applies to any dog - if it doesnt do as requested then its not under control. ITs unfortunate but cannot see how you can be held totally responsible.

I like others put mine back on leads when other people or dogs they dont know approach. If I see some one coming the alsation/grey goes back on lead, salukix normally on her unless shes running & labx doesnt move - she is totally trained & will stay at my feet if asked.

 

Get some proper advice but bot dogs off lead- you could say she bit only becaus she felt threatend.

Can't see any criminal action....if it is a civil calim then it would be small court case and these mediate...with what you have said, his dog was more out of control and he didn't even try to get them parted so that would throw the ball more towards his side.

the court will aportion an amount payable to each person.....not too much to worry yourself about.....it also depends on how you want your relationship with your neighbour to go/or how it is now.

 

why a note through the door..you'd think that a neighbour with a genuine claim would want to discuss it with you??!!

 

anyway hope it all get sorted!!

Mables doing just fine, just literally got back from Norfolk coast with her she's so laid back its untrue. She ran through a short pipe after my dog a couple of weeks back I think she will be fine slow to go though. Had some trouble with my dog as you can see I realy think the guys taking the p--s but he's given me the vet's bill looks like they realy made the most of that one! The dog covered a couple of my mates bitchs last month so there will be some good pups their, so I had abit of spare cash but looks like thats gone.

Anyway of to Kelmarsh game fair tomorrow usually a good day.

Keep in touch mate.

Regards Wooly
