A few minutes ago my gardener (he's legal, I can show you the papers) told me there was a dead dog in my backyard. I found this odd since I just locked up my 2 dogs (Dalmations) in the house 5 minutes previously.
I went outside there and found a dead Terrier. My best guess is that our dogs killed it when it snuck in, since they've killed everything from Raccoons to Cockatiels. They're nice dogs, but they lay waste to anything that enters the backyard but have never been vicious to a person or other dog.
I call animal control and find out that its the neighbors dog. At first I was going to tell them but then I reconsidered and told the shelter to pick it up. From my limited knowledge of my neighbors, there would probably major 'issues' if they knew what happened (even though the dog went into our backyard).
So now, it was 'hit' by a car a block away and animal control is picking it up.
Also TW lawyers, would I be liable at all for any of this? I mean, it is quite possible our dogs were attacked first.
