[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  This is all very interesting.  What do all of you say to this scenario that happened this weekend when my husband and I were out walking our dog.  We were on Conn Ave in Woodley.  There were lots of people all around.  My husband had the dog short leashed.   Two kids came up from behind us to pet our dog.  One of the little ones actually startled our dog.  He cowered behind my husband.   We stopped, made him sit and let the kids pet him.  If he would have bitten the kid when startled (not after we made him sit and let the kids pet him), I'm assuming all of you would also hold us responsible, regardless of the fact we had the dog in control and on a short leash and the kids came up from behind.

I'm just asking the question.  Being a big dog lover, my perspective is skewed. (obviously)[/quote]

While I think you were responsible in your first scenario, I don't in this.  If you had control of your dog and some little kid startled him, the little kid's parents are responsible.  [/quote]
