Consult with an attorney. In these cases, it's likely a cease and desist letter from an attorney can avoid any escalation.
My dad and his girlfriend want to get rid of my dog because I work and don't live with them and she's too hyper for them. But this dog is mine, what do I do?

If the dog is yours, get it back (without disturbing the peace). If they won't give it back, you can file a lawsuit.

If your dog was stolen, the passage of time doesn't change the fact it's your dog. There are deadlines for filing lawsuits, but sometimes exceptions apply.

If it's your dog and your didn't give or sell him, you should be able to get him back or sue for the value. But the other person's story might be that it was a gift, who knows. A local animal lawyer can advise. Small claims court might be an option.

If they dogs are her property, then they are her property. You might ask for compensation for your costs in taking care of her property.

Looks like my neighbor left and has their Great Dane in the backyard. I noticed the neighbor going over their and staying for a bit then leaving as if he was checking on him. Is this legal?
answered on Jul 19, 2015
I'm not aware of any statutes that make it illegal as long as the dog is properly being taken care of. A criminal lawyer can verify.

I don't know for sure, but I do know there are companies that will come to your home and help you with this humanely. I know someone who did it with their kitty and it made a horrible experience a bit more palatable, knowing her pet died at home, peacefully.

Generally speaking, animals are considered property in Arizona and damage to property generally does not include emotional trauma. Turn it over to your business insurance to handle.
Call tellin me my dog got hit by a car and didnt survive she said she paid and she hasnt paid. What can i do?
answered on Jun 12, 2015
Sorry for your loss.
It's possible her homeowner's (or renter's) liability insurance would cover it. Ask her to make a claim on her policy if she has insurance.
Also, depending on the value of your dog, you can sue in small claims court.
We were able to find the boys, get her tags back from the dad, buy her back from the person she was sold to. Them knowingly removing her tags, where do i stand legally?
answered on Jun 3, 2015
The parents of the boys are likely responsible for the damages their boys caused to you. There is a chance their homeowner's (or renter's) liability insurance policy might cover it. You can also file a police report.

Your tenant is probably primarily liable. However, anyone can be sued. So make sure you have a good insurance liability policy that covers you.

Generally speaking, in Arizona, dog owners are liable when their dog bites and causes damage, unless it can be proved the dog was provoked. Be well.
