Yes, they can nail you for all this. They may try to put your dog to sleep. You could also be charged for the quarantine costs. Be glad that is all they are going to do to you. You should be expecting a lawsuit from the Meter reader personally and from the company he works for for his medical bills paid under workers compensation, and for his unpaid wages for his time off work.
