This case already HAS been done on People's Court. Not same dog, though. Bottom line - The owner of the Dog is responsible, and should be. There is a thing call a 'Leech Law'. The owner of the dog was negligent. And I don't feel $1,100 is out of whack. A typical bumper on an average car cost this to replace. $300-$600 for bumper, $200 to paint, $300 in labor, + fasteners/disposal/environmental fees, etc... Yes, I feel sorry for the Dog + Owner. And I am a dog lover. But why should the driver of the car lose $1,100? He did nothing wrong, assuming he was following the traffic laws. Open and shut case...
