Technically, our dog was on our property. We have an empty field adjoining our yard and our property ends beside their garage. We have always allowed them to use their vehicles on our property.
Our Blue Heeler and his mother, a Golden Retriever, were playing in our field near their garage when it happened.
I don’t place blame on the father in law because they were playing close to his vehicle, even though it was our property. I just believe that he should have at least expressed some condolences. We would have been polite and nice, because he didn’t do it on purpose.
If I accidentally struck someone’s pet, I would call and apologize.
Is your field fenced in?
