Were you ever married to the ex?

If the dog caused any damage, I think both the owner, and the door answerer, can be held responsible.

There are no custody rights to dogs. Either you own the dog or your ex boyfriend does. You state he gave you the money to adopt the dog. Was the money a gift? If so and the paperwork as you claim has your name on it, the dog is yours and you can get it back through a small claims action. If he... View More

An animal is considered property of it's owner. Therefore, unfortunately, it cannot choose it's owner. Sadly the answer is no unless the dog is given to you by the owner.

Get an estimate and have it paid for by farmer or his insurance. Or if you have collision run it through yours and they can,,,,, call farmers (as it were)(sorry).
If you were injured, contact a member of the Oklahoma Assn for Justice--they give free consults.

You are likely the victim of a scam. There is probably no dog, just cute pictures.
The dogs were sent with a friend who lives in south Texas for temporary housing while the owner was going through a dog barking citation case in Oklahoma City, when that concluded the woman in Texas refused to return these valuable dogs. What should she do?

She could sue for conversion to recover the dogs. This would be expensive. She may also be able to file a police report but would likely be told this is a "civil" matter.

Sorry I didn't see your question earlier. If you live outside the city limits, no tickets unless your dogs cause harm. If you're inside a city limits, it depends on what the city ordinances provide for.

Just tell the police it's not true. They can't arrest you without a warrant, and no prosecutor is likely to file this. So, don't worry.

Anybody can sue anybody else. The question is would your neighbor have a cause of action that wouldn't be tossed out of Court for failing to state a cause of action. Your neighbor could sue but would lose under your set of facts set out herein.

It maybe advisable to ask to meet with a police officer to make a report just to document everything that has been happening. Next, you may want to speak to an attorney about getting a civil injunction against him, and maybe even a protective order.

If its a recurrent problem, possibly a class action. The law treats pets like objects.They have a certain retail value, and the value of your pet based on resales for dogs of that age, variety, condition is what youi get--what it meant to you, you don't get.

Contact your homeowners. Follow their advice. You have a defense so I wouldn't worry. Tell that person they should contact the dog warden so hopefully they can identify the owner.
