If Bankfodder has asked for the name of the dogs' owner, post it !!

 

 

Hi, I am a dog trainer and business owner of Home Counties Dog Training, legally this is fairly simple ---ish, if both (sets) dogs were OFF lead its fairly hard to prove anything without 2 or more witnesses, if both dogs were ON lead its fairly hard to prove anything without 2 or more witnesses, but if your dog was ON lead and the other dog/s OFF lead and there was at least 1 Witness then they are screwed, the fact they have paid £500 toward the cost is already an admission of sorts. You are not at fault here and you should be able to recover costs, even if via small claims court, but your dogs long term health/view to other dog's is more important now, how is yours around other dogs, more importantly, around other dogs the same size/colour as the attackers.

 

 

I wish you well.
