Q: My 5 month old dog went missing. Two young boys removed her tags, but left her collor on and sold her. I have her again
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?
A: 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.
