Did you know it is illegal in California to chain or tether your dog to a stationary object for more than three hours at a time? While many assume this law is primarily in place to protect the health and wellbeing of dogs, the law also protects us against dog bites and dog attacks. A continuously chained or tethered dog isn’t simply a dog which is treated badly by its owner, it also is a possible threat to those around it. Let’s take a closer look.
Many dog owners assume if their pet was chained at the time of a dog bite incident or dog attack, they can’t be liable for damages. However, this is not the case, especially considering California law. If you or a loved one has been injured in a dog attack which involved a chained or tethered dog, speak to a Newport Beach injury attorney today.
