Re: renters dog harms neighbors dog
The first thing I would check would be any home owner policy that is availible. You may have a case in magistrate court, but that is time consuming and costly and the dog's owner may be judgment proof. So, the most likily way to recover is probably through any home owner's policy that may apply.
