Compensation for Injury to or Death of a Dog
When a dog is injured or killed as a result of a third party's negligent, reckless or intentional conduct, the dog's owner is entitled to receive "compensatory" damages. If the dog survived, this would mean the veterinary treatment costs and possibly an additional sum for the dog owner's emotional distress.
If the dog did not survive, then the dog owner should receive the veterinary treatment costs, the costs of basic cremation, the current fair market value of the dog, and possibly an additional sum for the dog owner's emotional distress. If your dog was injured or killed, you may wish to take action to recover compensation such as veterinary bills and your own emotional distress. To learn how to do so, and receive the necessary legal forms, obtain What To Do If Your Dog Is Injured Or Killed. To just read the applicable law, see the following topics:

I got your DVD and updated my contracts accordingly. So much information - I had to watch several times to make sure I get it all. But the actual work of updating my contracts then was very, very easy. You are right, trainers really don't know. All the seminars, conferences, books and videos geared towards trainers do not mention that. Scary to think how much I didn't know before your DVD.
