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...

Yes, there is a thing called the 'Leech Law' but I think that only applies to folks posting on the .Morg who refuse to pay their VCA dues.
