I have a 60lbs Australian Sheppard who did not have time to react. My son was actually with my dog and came to his aid by punching it in the face and prying it mouth open.
Of course it happens Saturday late so the dog has to an after hours Vet and ends up needing surgery. All together it was a $2k bill. The owner at first apologized and said he would pay for vet bills. I frankly think he thought my son was going to him. Now he saying he will pay only $1k. Neither dogs were on a leash.
I am thinking we will end up in small claims courts. We paid the bill and have time and patience to go through small claims court. Any of you gone through this? There are witnesses that will say it was totally unprovoked.
