[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm conflict avoidant too, but in this case I'm team DH. Honestly I'd probably take it further and look into making a case the dog should be put down so it can't attack other innocent people in the future, but no idea if this is feasible. [/quote]

You must not have a dog or you wouldn’t say something so cruel.   We had a Yorkie and he was a nipper.  I would never have him unleashed.   Someone let my five year old niece walk him once and she couldn’t hold on.   He ran to this woman walking and bit her ankle.  I felt so awful, I told her I’d pay if she wanted to get it looked at.  It didn’t break the skin.

I would not blame someone for kicking my little CoCo if he was biting anyone.   Some people are shameless.  [/quote]

Your Yorkie was a known nipper who was always leashed and broke away from your niece one time, and was, I assume, never allowed to be walked by a small child again. The dog in this situation was allowed to leave its  yard and bite a toddler on a public sidewalk. Not the same thing.

Had your Yorkie broken away from a child and nipped OP’s daughter, and you felt awful and apologized, I think OP would have accepted the apology and had zero thought about engaging a lawyer.

Hopefully this dog just needs to be restrained by a leash,  confined to its yard, and/or get some sessions with a trainer. There are plenty of wonderful dogs who are not allowed to be off leash around dogs, children, cats, farm animals etc. They need diligent owners. [/quote]
