Publisher Description: Here is an engaging, informative, and no-nonsense look at the everyday situations and issues--and their legal consequences--that affect dogs and their owners. Dished up with a good deal of humor, heart, and pragmatic counsel, every chapter covers a different issue that dogs and their pet parents may face at some time. Author Patti Lawson presents these issues conversationally--not couched in legalese--so every pet parent, grandparent, or sibling will know what to expect. With real-life stories and real court cases, this book covers topics people rarely think to ask about or research--until it's too late: Fighting city hall when a dog runs afoul of the law The rights of pet parents to take their dogs on public transportation Providing for a canine companion after an owner's death Keeping custody of their pet should they divorce or separate Confiscation of a pet by a humane officer if they violate a city ordinance Housing rights and those of their dog Breed-specific legislation and more. Pet parents can make sure their dog enjoys every legal right and protection available with the great advice and information Lawson presents in this book. This is the go-to guide for keeping your pooch out of the pound and you out of court. |
