I need legal advice, from someone that knows TX law, regarding what I need to do and what I am liable for. I don’t want my dog taken away. Thank you. |
Oh, what an awful situation for you. You should probably consult a lawyer if your neighbour is of the impression that any of this is your fault. I do wish people would keep their animals on their own property. Over here you would not be held liable in any way as your dog was properly contained in your yard.
I'm sure you feel very sorry for the neighbor's and their loss of their dog but none of this is your fault.
I wish you the best and please keep us updated.
