Damaging a Dog

- The plaintiff was walking her dog and claims the defendant’s dog escaped and attacked her pet. She’s suing the defendant for vet bills. The defendant argues the plaintiff’s dog wasn’t even injured because there weren’t any puncture wounds. He doesn’t think he owes her.
The Defendant thinks the Plaintiffs are trying to "shake him down" for a $200 vet bill that he even admits involved a 30second attack/scuffle??? Thats not what a "shake down" is.
This scenario has happened to me and my dog before. A dog can bite, just not chomp down and break the skin. But as a pet owner, you just don't know what damage has been done, especially if your dog is acting frightened. If the defendant had just apologized that his dog got out and scared them (even if he didn't think any damage was done) they may not have come to court. $200 is not a huge vet bill to "keep the peace in the neighborhood".
Absolutely. They can bruise just like humans do without breaking the skin.
It wasn't even really $200! The Plaintiffs said they offered for him to only pay $150, and he declined. 🙄
Facts my dog does that to my neighbors chickens when they come in are yard he doesn't kill them but they go into shock
Facts!
Defendant is selfish and lacks empathy. Just because you wouldn’t take your dog to the vet over a punctureless fight doesn’t mean everyone else has to follow your lead. The plaintiffs have every legal right to have their dog checked out and the vet bill was nothing short of reasonable.
The defendant is ridiculous 💀 bro thought $218 was a shake down after his dog got out it’s literally his fault lmao
my dog was attacked 2 years ago my a neighbours dog. There were 2 tiny puncture wounds that I couldn't even see until the fur was shaved. But the injury was far worse. This is how the vet explained it. When dogs bite they will also shake their heads. This causes the skin to be torn from the muscle beneath leaving a pocket of air and fluid. The puncture wounds are minor in comparison.
True, but the difference in your case is there actually was puncture wounds which allows the dog to be gripped and shaken to cause that shearing trauma. When a dog is being mouthed but not punctured that shearing trauma can’t occur because there’s no grip on the soft tissues. Also the pocket of air can only occur if the airway or lungs are ruptured or if there’s puncture wounds to allow the air in to create the sub-cut emphysema. So whilst you’re correct in your case, that wasn’t the case here. Luckily it sounds like it just scared the dog and the owner more than anything else.
My cat got attacked by a dog and had no puncture wounds, ate her food that night and was dead the next morning. Dog bites don’t always leave puncture wounds but when a dog shakes it’s head when it bites it can cause internal bleeding even if there’s no puncture wounds.
Not all bites draw blood. But the pressure can do internal damage. Small toy dogs like Chihuahuas and Yorkies squeak toys to larger animals whether it's larger dogs, or wild creatures like coyotes or even hawks.
I would have happily paid that cheap vet bill instead of coming on national TV 🤦🏾♀️
An animal can be injured OR KILLED, even if the skin is not broken. Many carnivores will sometimes "shake" prey to kill it, by causing spinal injuries.....
Facts!
What the funnelcake bearing does him living in the neighborhood for twenty four years have on his vicious dog?!?!?
I like that better than old Sam Hill
Our silky died after being bit by a dog (kid opened the door and his dog ran across the street and attacked our dog). Our dog had spine trauma which caused organ failure.
Was it a Silky Terrier? I'm so sorry for your loss. I learned a lot about ST's which are far more valuable than Yorkies. The Silky Terrier can detect mold in a home!
@@MusicTennis terriers are bred as working dogs. Love them all. Yes, he was a silky terrier. Had blue/black hair. Beautiful dog
The Defendant was being stupid….his dog =100% his fault. Thankfully the Plaintiffs dog was not seriously hurt.
The outside interview portions lol, that was a genuine UHH?!" that she uttered lol. Someone or something can bite down, hurt you, but still not puncture, and break your skin..... lol @the kiddos I work with, those baby chompers can sting!!!
even without finishing this case the defendant owes the money. Yes a dog can get bitten without puncture ones because it can almost be more like a pinch depending on how the bite occurs and in a situation like that even if the animal is entirely unharmed, it is still prudent to take the dog to the vet and have them looked at which still cost money. He is responsible regardless because his dog got out
Main problem is not the bite leaves puncture wound or not, but that the dog got out....
Honestly should use a standard strong leash instead of a weak wireless thing...
Sick of selfish entitled irresponsible dog owners.
Dog Owners = most irresponsible pet owners HANDS DOWN. Never keep their dogs properly contained and yet never feel they’re responsible for ANYTHING because of that.
*shitty dog owners
The house down the street from me has 2, 3 large dogs that roam at least once weekly. Saw one of the owners yelling at one, then beat the poor thing....
Good dog
Bad owner
Everyday I get nervous taking my pup boxer out. I live in apartments and soo many of the tenants walk their dogs w/o a leach because the yards are big. It really upsets me because I keep my dog on a leash and he’s too big for me to pick him up if a dog comes after him. He’s soo sweet too that he’d think they’re trying to play w/ him. I just hope and pray all the time that a dog doesn’t try to hurt him because there’s already been times when little dogs have came towards us and I just walked him quickly into Out home.
A police officer gave me this information (it was to use against a neighbor dude was psycho and would run at me when I walked my dog)... carry a stick with you.
@@ButtonsCasey I’ll definitely start carrying something w/me. I don’t want to hurt anyone’s dog but I gotta protect mine if need be.
Anytime a small dog fight and big dog fit happens it should be checked by the Veterinarian, the animal could have internal bleeding or punchered lung
When my chihuahua was attacked, she had very little bleeding, minor puncture marks barely visible under her fur, and internal tears that had to be surgically fixed. She also had the air pockets talked about... the vet bill was $2168. Lack of obvious puncture wounds does not mean zero damage.
The defendant says that the vet said it didn't suffer any bites, but it had to have seen a vet to have that confirmed, but then at the end he says that if that had happened to his dog he would NOT have taken it to a vet. Then he is NOT an animal lover, how can anyone that owns an animal, see it get attacked, and then not take it to a vet to have it checked over? Every dog owner that loses control of their dog, always have a good excuse as to why, WHO CARES WHY, you lost control, so pay up!...
Pet lover or not, what he would have done doesn't matter. The plaintiffs don't have to live by his beliefs.
my neighbor was walking his cat, my dog stayed in my yard but barked at them and he tried to sue me because he stepped funny picking his cat up and it scratched him when my dog was barking. Some people… sue over ridiculous things.
This case was quick and easy. It's simple. If you can't control your dog, and the dog attacks another animal, or worse, a human, then it's your responsibility to pay for any vet or hospital bills.
I've been bitten to a point of pain and there was no detectable broken skin. Any bite can get an infection even if there was no blood or broken skin.
A bite is a bite. The pressure of the bite is enough to cause tissue trauma, there doesn't have to be any punctures. Tearing the connective tissue can cause a pocket of 'air' that has to be treated. Given enough motivation a dog will readily breach an electronic fence despite being shocked.
Love her!! ❤️
The plaintiff looks like she’s gonna cry… she must be super nervous 🥴
That defendant was a complete jerk and had zero defense. Every time he opened his mouth he seemed stupider.
I can't stand these owners like the defendant. Keep your dog on a leash or in your fenced in yard.
Defendant: "imma animal lover..." 😅
All animal lovers: 💀💀💀
The defendant is getting on my nerves with his pathetic excuses. He was not there and did not see what happened. I would have taken my dog to the vet as well because I'm not a professional.
A shakedown for $200. Clearly he's never seen a dog bite episode on The People's Court.
60lb dog could probably fit the yorkie in its mouth without puncturing with canines. Being a dog bite victim advocate, YES there can be serious injuries without a bite. We see it often. We encourage people to get their dog checked and keep a serious eye on the area.
The grab and shake breaks up the bonds between flesh, busting capillaries/interrupting blood flow. Which is a perfect breeding ground for bacteria, leading to sepsis.
Plus bones can be broken, especially a dog that small.
My pom was attacked, her fur and me going Xena on it saved her. I kept an eye on that area because I knew too. Luckily only minor bruising. It was an 80lb AmBull that my neighbor owns, no fence, snapped the shitty wire tether.
I'm a dog groomer and you can be bitten and not have puncture wounds. The dog just isn't biting hard enough, in this case its due to being young. It still hurts like hell when grooming a dog to be bit and not have skin break and its the same when one dog does it to another. Spectators being questioned an uneducated on the matter and complete morons.
I love the defendant's "logic": "Actually, I have two dogs as well, and the other dog didn't leave the boundary."
This isn't about the other dog, and the dog that did leave the boundary doesn't get credit because the other didn't.
It sounded like the puppy just wanted to play. That is why there were no puncher wounds on it. Sounds like the puppy mouthed the dog.
Keep your dog on a leash! Keep your dog under control!
Hahahah only 30 SECONDS …. Why don’t we go 30 SECONDS!!!!
I have been bitten a few times by dogs and not had any puncture wounds (vet med), but the resulting bruising is painful and impressive. Dog bites can just damage the underlying muscle while not breaking the skin. If you are 8 pounds, just got nommed on by a bigger dog and are bruised, you likely aren't going to willingly let your owner thoroughly check you over, so it is completely logical to take the dog to the vet to be sure there are no injuries. Dog bites can also cause things like punctured lungs/fractured ribs/ruptured bladder, etc (and there does not need to be an open puncture wound for these to happen, the shaking motion can cause this damage).
It is 100% the right thing to do to take your dog into the vet after an attack. The guy at the end saying he wouldn't, I believe him because he is also the type of person that thinks an electronic fence is proper containment.
Plaintiffs are overreactors and the defendant is kinda a jerk.
A bite has no puncture wounds?
That is so cute her dog does that with the box lmfao
Oh god my dog had saliva on him...call the vet, call the surgeon, call the pope.
Yorkshire pudding???🫢😭
Calling after intro- plaintiff wins
Reasonable guess.
Sounds like the dog was just trying to play or something but you gotta control your dogs
Did I miss what kind of dog he had?? Puppy, 58 pounds??
I can bite you and leave bruising, without drawing blood. Is it a close call there too? He absolutely should have paid.
Shaking? For $200?
I don't like those wireless boundary fences with those collars I think they are cruel .
Since 2005 there's a non-shock button. The dog feels vibration only like a restaurant pager. I've used it once to save a dogs life that chased tractors. It was down to one eye.🦮
Good Morning
Doug is too much.😊
Not true. The little dog was lucky. Pressure wounds can do damage, especially if the skin is pulled from muscle, etc. Pay the bill.
Do you know how many times my has put his jaw on my hands and has never close his mouth. It’s a playing thing. I think it’s overdramatic by her.
Had to stop this before it got started good. I can't bear to watch these cases where animals are killed or injured.
No dogs were killed or injured in this case. Not even a puncture wound
dogs mouth other dogs, they do not always bite.
What if the dog was just playi bitiing ?
So what?
$218!??
Surprised if wasn't more, they said their was an air and fluid pocket, my vet charges $150 to drain those, if they're bad enough. $218 was probably the cost just to see the vet.
Harvey to answer your question I just asked him why he shot her without from Shrek. I have three dogs when they play with each other 35 then they fight one another they crawl, and they jump on each other but they’re not hurting each other. There are never any punctuate the dog name just been trying to play with a Yorky Andy, do you work he wasn’t used to that kind of play granite all three of my dogs are very small and they’re been with each other since they’ve been about four months old so they’re all used to one another
You need to start calling out your wife on being a Karen fella…
Dogs are not PIRANHAS. They don’t have razor sharp teeth that will rip flesh every bite. So a dog can attack and it may not leave actual puncture wounds!!! I don’t understand why that’s so difficult to comprehend.
Plaintiff are the best examples of exaggeration. Ober acting and drams with 24 years old neighbour for the sake of 250$ ??
Biblical neighbours .... love thy neighbour 😂😂
Harvey Levin adds NOTHING to the show.. He just repeats everything we already heard.
My problem with him is he "humanizes" dogs with "rescue a dog it luvs ya forever" which is nuckin futz. A rescue dog has no clue you saved it and can come with aggression issues. I've had many clients bit by their rescue. They expect a dog to process a human emotion like "gratitude"? Harv should pay it forward and say "watch Cesar Milan"!!
Cares so much about the dog but apparently just let it "get maimed" for ten seconds before doing anything? Come on.
Being a dog attack victim myself...you're freaking stunned. Then she was torn between protecting the girl or the dog. Go join a dog bite victim group, this scenario plays out so many times. Luckily the victim dog wasn't seriously injured in this one.
Clever mother 81
🎉🎉
Bite means teeth going into something. Not saying he didn't contain his dog but not a bite wound. And ive been ACTUALLY bit by a dog.

Half was fine! There was nothing wrong with the Dog! The owner even said the dog was fine. Smh.
All animals and insects are better than people are so it always bothers and irks me when cases like this arise where folks are negligent in controlling their animals. I agree with Milian in this case which is rarity for me.
Wow. A rarity indeed for you, adrian. 🙄
I’m surprised you think animals are better than people as they have nothing you can steal or take advantage of. Everything is transactional in your life including your bigotry and hate of non-black people. Keep surprising me Adrian
Thats why I got rid of all my toxic friends, and adopted 3 outside cats...raccoons...possums...
Oh my! You missed a golden opportunity to rip JM a new one for what she says at 6:40. Next time say: "Milian should watch Cesar Milan's show and teach her dog not to attack her front door and packages.. omg her dog isn't dumb but she sure is about dog behavior". See? You can make her look awful and pay it forward by providing a solution.

Guarantee you its a pit bull, but let me keep watching.
At one point he says it's a "pi-...." but stops himself and just gives the dogs weight instead.
Oh, I'm sure he will use one of the "buzzwords" Pit owners use to avoid saying "Pit".
And it's only 9 months old. 1-3 years of age, there will no doubt be bodies. Especially with an inground fence being the only thing 'keeping' it in.
@@benjie128No he doesn’t. He says “My dog is about 58lbs” but says the “b” in “about” with a little force so it sounds like a p
No puncture wounds. I wasn't expecting to be on the defendant's side but here I am lol.
Because.....? Fatal injuries can get caused, without breaking the skin. Yorkies are kinda small.....
Brader honey😋
I think it’s ridiculous for the plaintiff to take the dog to the vet when if there is no blood or anything how is the dog injured ffs most people Would idk use their brain and look to see if there’s a bite then move on ffs
The plaintiffs are ridiculous
Please explain
They sued for 200 bucks wym
Shes a karen. The judge needs to settle down with the defendant, the plaintiffs are clearly nuts.
The plaintiff seems like she is crazy. Needs attention and totally over reacted.
