Another WASTE of court time.
Don`t Tread on Me
PetSmart isn’t too “smart” in this day and age . . . allowing animals on their premises, leashed or otherwise. A dog could bite someone. And, obviously, owners don’t always clean up after their pets. If PetSmart really thinks that having a sign in the window saying “leashed pets welcome” protects them from lawsuits, they haven’t been paying attention.
Yep, not like he couldn’t see a big brown pile on their clean tile floors. Too bad he didn’t fall face first. At least then we’d have a good pic and story to talk about. Hope the judge dismisses it, and him, quickly.
The guy makes some good points. If the floors are poop colored and they didn’t act diligently enough in a circumstance where poop lays on tile floors they were negligent.
I’ve been in several Petsmart’s and every one of them had off white/light grey tile floors.
Here is the type of frivilous case in which the plaintiff really should be required to pay court fees. Good grief - practice just a little personal responsibility!
No kidding. For crying out loud! I go to Petsmart all the time for pet supplies and love the fact that animals are welcome and encouraged there.
This could happen anywhere though. I see no reason why the venue in which this occurs should bear any responsibility for the actions of an animal owned by a third party.
And, obviously, owners don’t always clean up after their pets.
True, but this does not absolve people of the responsibility of looking where they are going, either.
This inane lawsuit is reason number 7883741904812097412073 for tort reform.
I do too - I shop for cat food there all the time and I love to see the animals. If this yahoo wins his court case, we can probably say good-bye to that.
Yeah, I just love the dog feces at PetSmart! It’s why we go there.
Too bad he didn’t fall face first? The man was 69 years old.
Well, like Rodney Dangerfield said, “you have to watch out for number 1........so you don’t step in number 2”
Gee... I wonder why there are car wrecks? Cars are 8-10 feet long, 4 feet high, weigh 2 tons yet accidents all over the place? People must be driving with their eyes closed, huh.
Okay, missed that part of the story. Now I feel like crap...no pun intended. Still...a silly lawsuit...imo.
Eyes closed...sometimes I think so. Cell phones, coffee cups, doughnuts, applying makeup, can’t let the other car get in front of me, just plain wrecklessness, etc., etc., etc.. More defensive and less offensive driving, and throw in a little common courtesy for letting people merge, and we’d have far fewer wrecks.
Drivers are just scammers, huh.
Too funny! Thanks...
I don’t think so, but I know several who should at the very least have to go back through Driver’s Education. And that’s not counting those driving on suspended/revoked licenses. Defensive driving works wonders. Always assume the other drivers don’t know what they’re doing and be ready to react.
