Not even a year ago I gave my aunt my French Bulldog on the promise that if she ever decided she did not want her she would bring her directly back to me. I’ve visited them on many occasions she never once mentioned not wanting her. I have even stated on numerous occasions if you decide not to... Read more »
You probably can retrieve the dog assuming your aunt agreed to the promise to give him back if she decided to get rid of him.
What is your question?
I have 2 large dogs out for their daily walk, both were leashed. While passing a house a small Yorkie (No leash and no supervision by its owner) came running after my dogs. It is unclear if yorkie was bit or was jumped on which caused a broken rib and internal bleeding. The interaction was short... Read more »
The Yorker and his owner are at fault.
Have the dog scanned for a microchip. If the dog is chipped, you should contact the Registered owner. If he is not chipped and there are no other signs of ownership, he is yours.
My dog was in my yard playing with my children. He put his hand into my yard
Anyone can be sued but your case sounds defensible.
Much more information is needed to properly answer your question.
Was told one couldn't have a dog tied outside at all times. That pets must be left outside no more than 1 hour at a time & that they should be allowed inside each night & in extreme weather.
Dogs shouldn’t be tied out at all. They have to have food, water and shelter if they are going to be left outside all the time.
The unleashed dog and his owner.
Long story short my neighbors are renters who have 5 large mixed breed dog’s that have not only attacked and even killed one of my dogs but has also tried to attack me! I have contacted the land owner numerous times, spoke with the dog owners themselves numerous time’s only to be told its my... Read more »
Shoot them, but only if loose on your property AND they are presenting a danger to you, your family or your dogs.
I gave my dog up a year ago because I was unable to have him in my apartment. I’ve moved now and have much more space.
I saw him out in the new owners yard recently and he looked underfed. I still have vet records and photo proof of him being mine originally. What can I do to get him back?
Depends on how the dog got from you to the new owner!
All animals are rescued. 2 are 18 yo. Will try to rehome some.
Probably not as long as they are all licensed and vetted properly.
My ex has had nothing to do with him but maybe 2 weeks out of the 9 months. Now my ex says he can take him just because he paid for him but I’ve been the one buying the dog food, paying vet bills, and just taking care of him in general so can my ex take him all because he bought him almost 2...

If he wasn’t awarded the dog in the divorce action, he doesn’t get the dog. End of story. You’ve had custody for two years and paid for everything. If he wanted the dog, he should have said so before the divorce. He’s out of luck unless you surrender the dog, regardless of what he says now.
My father had me sign a paper which stated that I would be giving him custody of my 3 dogs beginning on 09/18/2019. This was done with the assumption that he would keep all 3 of them temporarily, however, that was never his true intention. On 09/17/2019, a day prior to the paper I signed went into... Read more »
You can sue for the value of the dogs you lost. The “contract” between you and dad is unenforceable, but you can’t get emotional damages from a breach of contract.
Come on porch, eat our cats food, trash,make mess,open containers. Walked in new concrete,left prints they don't care. be done. AC said t brking no laws. They lock them up at night. Bark all time.
Catch them on your property and take them to LMAS and surrender them.
We live in a Bullitt county subdivision where there are some dogs. I have 2 dogs. But everyone else doesn't let their dog constantly bark at their neighbor. Their dog is a doberman and stands on their deck and barks every move we make. We all live on 1acre lots. I've been here 33years and... Read more »
Call Animal Services first. If that doesn’t work, go to the courthouse when it reopens and take a criminal complaint for nuisance.
The dog has been in the person's care for 4 years
No. If they rehomed the dog, the dog belongs to the caretaker.
On the 3 time they left and left dog with me. The person says to keep dog until she gets a place. 7 months later I get a text saying give animal back. I assume it would 2 to 3 months for her to find a place. Was staying hotels and above a bar
They have abandoned the dog and the dog belongs to you unless you agreed to keep her until she found a place.
Yes. It is either one or two years, depending on the exacts facts of how the dog died.
My ex has been in jail for the last 8 months of the 9. He has had an addiction problem for as long as I can remember and I honestly don't trust him to take care of my dog.
Let your lawyer handle it but I’d husband hasn’t already filed something for the dog, just sit on it. If he has filed something, your divorce lawyer can respond.
Have had to put my dogs to keep them from getting ate because the stray is a female and in heat
They should, yes.
