breffni 3 Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 I seen a bit of a racket going on up the street,not knowing it was my dog. A little girl lifted her cat off the ground. I feel bad for her. Hate living here with people around me. Quote Link to post
Tallyho 181 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 not to sur on this one , as your dog was out roaming it might come back on you but not 100% sure , if they dont know it was you ide keep quite as it might cause trouble between you and the neighbours . Quote Link to post

Am i in the shit? sorry to say it mate but if your neighbour finds out and complains and they can prove it was your dog (thats the important thing its got to be proved) then yes your in the shit buddy there is a few acts they'll get you on "stray dogs act " i know your dogs not a stray but it is illeagal not to be in control of your dog ar any time ..... they might also try the dangerous dog act depending on the type of dog depends if its on the dangerous dog list however if it killed a cat they will try that 1 ... remember its has to be proved it was your dog ...if you live in a council house they may also say your in breech of your tenency agreement .... but like i say mate THEY HAVE TO PROVE IT!!! dont go down without a fight ATB GARY Quote Link to post

TOPPER 1,809 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) first rule ADMIT NOTHING cats are classed as property under english law , if the cat was not on it s owner property or in a cage it has no rights its classed as feral if its out and about then tough ---- your in the clear but be prepared for the dog warden/rspca etc to come knocking if the cops come dont do an interview just say charge me or go away then call clive rees , ive been here a fair number of times and allways walked away from it, best of luck chap but admit nothing!!!!!!

CorkyJohn 808 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Topper's right, remember one thing though - the RSPCA are not police & have no authority as such, entering your premises etc. Even if you have to speak to the police tell the RSPCA to leave & insist on them leaving to the police.
