Damages Claims
We strongly recommend that all dog owners have insurance to cover you for third party liability claims.
If you do not have insurance cover available and you face a claim for damages caused by your dog, then (as a general rule) you will be liable if:-
- The incident was due to your negligence (ie, you did something you should not have done or you failed to do something that you should have done), or
- Your dog has behaved in a similar manner on a previous occasion and you were aware of it
