Hold landlords responsible, accountable, and liable for dog bites from dogs that they allow to live on/in their rental property
This petition was published by Michele Feeney-Wallace on Sep 27, 2008
We, the signers of this petition, believe that a ‘GOOD’ landlord/ property owner should make sure that the dogs that they allow to live ON and IN their rental property are licensed and vaccinated according to the law.
We also believe that if dog is living ON and IN your rental property and you KNOW and ALLOW the dog to live there; then the landlord should be held responsible, accountable, and liable for the dog's actions ANYWHERE ON or IN the rental property even though a landlord is not the animal’s owner or "keeper".
We believe that landlords should and need to be held accountable, responsible, and liable for dogs living ON and IN their rental property.
We are requesting that the law to be changed and modified to protect the TRUE victims of dog bites.
