I know of an instance where a police officer reached his hand in the fence and got bit. He said there was a "Beware Of Dog" sign and he should not have reached inside the fence.
I can see that, but it could also be so the dog doesn’t accidentally get out as you open the gate. Or a deterrent to potential thieves that a dog may be roaming outside or is inside the home and might want to rethink their target.
There’s a big difference between intelligence and common sense! I ain’t no lawyer, but if I see a sign that says ‘beware of dog’, I’m not even getting close!
She clearly was not in control of her dog. Her dog was pulling her all over. Common sense does demand that she should have not allowed her dog to get right at the fence.
I believe that when her dog charged at the gate to bark at the gm Shepard, the dog’s paw went under the gate and the Shepard seized that opportunity and grabbed the dog’s paw.

But how did his dog get a hold of hers? A paw is not like a hand. His dog couldn't grab her dogs paw. In order for her dogs paw to get grabbed, her dog must have put her paw under the gate and his dog chomped down on it! Meaning her dog put it's paw on his property.

I walk dogs as part of my income. This incident was completely the Plaintiff's fault. She never should've let her dog anywhere near that fence. She's undoubtedly the one that yanked her dog's shoulder out of it's socket when the shepherd grabbed hold of it's paw.

This case is interesting. Initially, I was on the plaintiff's side, but then I considered how I’d handle the situation with my reactive dog. I would keep a tighter hold on the leash and possibly even walk around if I heard another dog barking as I approached, making sure not to let my dog get anywhere near the gate. My actions would primarily be to help my own dog stay calm. However, I can understand that if your dog isn’t typically reactive, you might not be as cautious, which could lead to more relaxed handling-resulting in a situation like this.
Bottom line, her dog drug her to the gate. She didn't have control at that moment. Had her dog not drug her to that gate, I think the outcome would be different.

Disagree with that assumption. The dogs were walking in front of her, so the GS grabbed the plaintiff’s dog’s paw before she walked past. Then she realized her one dog was in difficulty and started tugging violently on the leash to try to effect the release of her dog.

I just heard "her dog's ARM" and thought Zootopia EXTREME was suddenly a thing... Also, lady, for someone who's a lawyer, you seem a little ignorant about what that sign could've hinted at... "Beware of Dog" signs are normally not used as a joke or to be cute - these normally have a larger breed. There are actually ones for specific breeds as well and quite frankly, I'd treat them as seriously if it were a pit bull or a poodle. Any sized dog can be vicious, especially to strangers. It's best to not take that risk, especially if you are also a pet owner. Yes, dogs bark as a form of communication, but note that not all are gonna be like 101 Dalmations where it's used to help one another. Some are barking to say "GET BACK! THIS IS MY TERRITORY" and not just "hey, how ya doing?". If you can't see the dog's posture (wagging tail, showing teeth, etc), it's best to treat it as a form of protecting its turf - even if you think it could simply be greeting you.
The title brought me here because I despise pet cases. It was exactly as I thought but I wasn't sure who would win. I'm glad that this one was different and happy the dog is okay.
Common sense will tell you if you hear a dog barking crazy don’t walk next to the fence walk somewhere else turn around go the other way you’re at Saul lady
Plaintiff in the hallway: “blahblah…. Unfortunately I didn’t have a warning, now I do…” You HAD a warning!! “Beware Of Dog”……..!! That means that you should be AWARE OF THE DOG…!!! It’s not that complicated… Only when you try to spin it into a narrative that can earn you some cash, THAT’S WHEN it get’s complicated…!!!! 🙄
There is no way a dog---his dog--can actually reach under that 2.5 inch space and grab another dog that is just walking by. Her dog went to the gate and started fighting through that space. She didn't have control of her dog. The "way" is to better train your dog so to have control and it be better disciplined.
How tf the dog behind that gate *pull* the cocker spaniel? 😂 It's so funny to imagine the shepherd reaching out with a human like hand and pulling the spaniel's paw
I'm sorry. His gate looked solidly built. I would suspect her dog ran over and stuck it's leg under the fence, and when she was pulling like crazy on the video, she dislocated the dogs shoulder. No bites were involved, and in all my years (way to many) of having and training dogs, I have never seen one use 1 paw to trap and hold another dog's leg... Just sayin'.
It all boils down to common sense really. If she had taken this route multiple times as she stated, then she knew about this particular dog and the sign on the fence. All the had to do was switch the dogs from her right side to her left so that they wouldn't be near the fence. Simple solution. Her leash was too long and the dogs were walking her not the other way around. This judgement was fair.
I don’t honestly agree with this verdict. It’s a PUBLIC sidewalk…if the dog behind the fence is able to bite or paw grab behind the fence to the sidewalk then the dog got out! People and animals should be able to be walked on public space without feeling like they will be attacked or have to move! Obviously the defendant put a piece of wood from it happening again so that means his dog was in the wrong and the plaintiff should have won the medical bills.
I don't agree..the point of the fence is to contain the dog... I would have said I didn't know the paw would come out and grab my dog. You just don't think about that cuz there's a fence. The dog went out of the property...
Another issue is that the plaintiff is already put on notice that there is a beware of dog sign on the defendant’s gate with a dog that barks every time another dog passes by the fence. She appeared on the video to have plenty of sidewalk to walk her dog further away from the fence, or make sure her dog is on the street side when walking past the defendant’s property.
yeah, I feel like it definitely could have gone either way and was simply a judgment call. Another judge very easily could have ruled for the plaintiff in this case. 🤷🏼♀️
People that can't control their dog, should not be walking that close to a beware of dog sign. Her dog was not big, and she still can't control the dog smh.
I'm surprised the lawyer-plaintiff does not realize she has no case. Her dog pulled toward the fence and engaged a dog barking on its own property. Also her dog should be on her outside away from the fences she is passing as she can see how upsetting it is to fenced-in dogs to have another dog near it's boundary.
Even if a paw fits in a 2.5 inch gap, it’s unlikely that the snout of a German Shepherd would fit in the same gap and be able to grab the foot of another dog. I have to believe that the Cocker Spaniel’s foot went under the fence.
lolwut!! Didn't know beware of dog meant beware of dog? I hope the whole world sees this and never hires her as a lawyer. If she doesn't know the definition of the word "beware", what else will she play dumb with.
I'm not sure about this verdict. My common sense says that a beware of dog sign covers the property containing the dog not the sidewalk beyond that property. I can see this was a difficult call but there should have at the very least been shared responsibility. 👀
I think it's more likely that her dog ran and put his paw under the gate. Even if the homeowner's dog can put his paw under I don't see how it is that he can grab her dogs paw and pull it under to bite it .
The judge's decision is WRONG. A fence that has a sign 'beware of dog' to me means that if I enter the property 'BEWARE' but not if I walk in front of the gate. Even if her dog pulled her closer to the fence, her dog isn't going to stick its own paw under the fence, so for the defendant's dog to have bitten her dog's paw means his dog stuck its mouth over the threshold and was now on public property to be able to grab the paw...
One thing you should never do is put up a "Beware of Dog" sign on your property. As the plaintiff stated, it could be construed in court that the sign indicates a viscous dog is on the property and the owner knew it was viscous. A smarter move would be a sign that just politey stated "Dog on Premises".
@@barbarapaton4005 I agree you have a right to. I'm only stating that having such a sign could arguably be pitched to a jury that you knew your dog was viscous and you didn't take extraordinary efforts to protect people from it. You never know how a jury might be swayed. Saying "Dog on Premises" does the same thing without admitting the dog's ability to bite their ass off.
I disagree totally. You should ALWAYS put up a sign if you are afraid of your dog biting someone. You are warning people that you have a dog that may or may not bite. It becomes a liability issue. My friend had a dog that bit a cop when he reached in the fence.. My friend had a beware of dog sign. The cop said, I should not have reached in the fence after I saw the sign.
@@Cubanflowers the fact that you may agree this an abomination is concerning... the point is clear, and if you dont see it, please don't own or rescue a dog,like I have for 30 years. The point of the comment was that she cared so much about her animal. If she actually cared about her animal, she'd walk them across the street, or stepped away from the fence. It's this case and dozens of others that show Plaintiff's are at fault for not protecting their dogs and controlling them. Personal responsibility, period. Control you dog, period.
I wouldn't use her as my attorney. She wasn't even smart enough to get off the sidewalk to protect her dog and didn't abide by the tell tale sign. smh...
That's exactly why i have a beware of dog sign.. My dog isn't aggressive, but she is old and there have been people my dog just didn't like.. Dogs can sense a lot about a person..
The fact that JM didn't point this out had me yelling (in my head) at the screen... it had nothing to do with "pawS" plural, it's the other dog's MOUTH that was the the factor and it would be impossible for it's mouth to get under the fence, let alone grab ahold of another dog. Absolute nonsense.
It's ridiculous to say it's her fault . Think about if there is traffic coming and I'm walking my child , and my child was the one injured from just walking past someone's fence .
I knew she wouldn’t win this case before even hearing it with the claim amount! She NEVER grants high amount since her shows budget is the one paying the judgement!
I seriously doubt a dog could pull another dog's leg under a gap that small with it's paw and if it was using it's mouth it would have been obvious. It's head would have had to have been sideways and it would be extremely hard to grab the dog's leg. It makes more sense that the dog that was bitten pushed it's leg, even if a little bit, under the gap and it was grabbed at that point.
I have a small yorkie and live in the country. New neighbors moved in down the road. They have a pitbull and I’m assuming an underground electric fence type setup. A quarter mile the other direction, the same thing with 2 large dogs. My yorkie does not go for walks other than in my yard. She is too precious to me to take that chance.
Apparently it's impossible for the plaintiff to put themselves between the fence and her dog. She could have moved her dog to her right side away from the fence. And the plaintiff even admitted she wasn't close to the fence but has a long leash
Their dog was obviously on his property and he was doing his due diligence by having a fence and a sign. What more could he have done? She should keep her dogs on a tighter leash instead of letting them roam into someone else’s yard next to their fence.
Anytime I've seen a Beware of Dog sign I automatically think it's a not so friendly dog behind the gate or on their property. And I take heed!
I know of an instance where a police officer reached his hand in the fence and got bit. He said there was a "Beware Of Dog" sign and he should not have reached inside the fence.
I can see that, but it could also be so the dog doesn’t accidentally get out as you open the gate. Or a deterrent to potential thieves that a dog may be roaming outside or is inside the home and might want to rethink their target.

If you can't see the dog's posture (wagging tail, showing teeth, etc), it's best to treat it as a form of protecting its turf - even if you think it could simply be greeting you.
Facts! Every one of them!!! ❤❤❤
Love this comment!! Thanks!
Apparently she got her law degree from the University of Phoenix.
Wow
Yippurs...Common Horse Sense to actually guide your dog Away from 'Beware of Dog' sign. Hence...'BEWARE' Helloooo
This is a rare case where Harvey talks to intelligent people on the streets. The first woman was very smart.
Unfortunately, it doesn't make him less annoying 😂
@@16MedicRN preach
Haha that’s very true 😆
The title brought me here because I despise pet cases. It was exactly as I thought but I wasn't sure who would win. I'm glad that this one was different and happy the dog is okay.
Common sense will tell you if you hear a dog barking crazy don’t walk next to the fence walk somewhere else turn around go the other way you’re at Saul lady
I love the defendant's accent 😂
Plaintiff in the hallway: “blahblah…. Unfortunately I didn’t have a warning, now I do…”
You HAD a warning!!
“Beware Of Dog”……..!! That means that you should be AWARE OF THE DOG…!!!
It’s not that complicated…
Only when you try to spin it into a narrative that can earn you some cash, THAT’S WHEN it get’s complicated…!!!! 🙄
Plaintiff reminds me a boring school teacher 😂
There is no way a dog---his dog--can actually reach under that 2.5 inch space and grab another dog that is just walking by. Her dog went to the gate and started fighting through that space. She didn't have control of her dog.
The "way" is to better train your dog so to have control and it be better disciplined.
How tf the dog behind that gate *pull* the cocker spaniel? 😂
It's so funny to imagine the shepherd reaching out with a human like hand and pulling the spaniel's paw
Sis is so softly beautiful
I'm sorry. His gate looked solidly built. I would suspect her dog ran over and stuck it's leg under the fence, and when she was pulling like crazy on the video, she dislocated the dogs shoulder. No bites were involved, and in all my years (way to many) of having and training dogs, I have never seen one use 1 paw to trap and hold another dog's leg... Just sayin'.
It all boils down to common sense really. If she had taken this route multiple times as she stated, then she knew about this particular dog and the sign on the fence. All the had to do was switch the dogs from her right side to her left so that they wouldn't be near the fence. Simple solution. Her leash was too long and the dogs were walking her not the other way around. This judgement was fair.
I don’t honestly agree with this verdict. It’s a PUBLIC sidewalk…if the dog behind the fence is able to bite or paw grab behind the fence to the sidewalk then the dog got out! People and animals should be able to be walked on public space without feeling like they will be attacked or have to move! Obviously the defendant put a piece of wood from it happening again so that means his dog was in the wrong and the plaintiff should have won the medical bills.
I don't agree..the point of the fence is to contain the dog... I would have said I didn't know the paw would come out and grab my dog. You just don't think about that cuz there's a fence. The dog went out of the property...
Another issue is that the plaintiff is already put on notice that there is a beware of dog sign on the defendant’s gate with a dog that barks every time another dog passes by the fence. She appeared on the video to have plenty of sidewalk to walk her dog further away from the fence, or make sure her dog is on the street side when walking past the defendant’s property.
Imagine me putting a beware of car sign on the front of my vehicle, rearending someone else's car, then blaming them for not moving out of my lane?
She's lawyer. She knows better than to take this ridiculous case to court.
You're obviously wrong because she did.
yeah, I feel like it definitely could have gone either way and was simply a judgment call. Another judge very easily could have ruled for the plaintiff in this case. 🤷🏼♀️
9:56 huh that's exactly what that means love
The injuries did not cost her 5k!
Oh so now she changes her behavior as far as walking her dog?!? If she did nothing wrong, why would she change anything!
People that can't control their dog, should not be walking that close to a beware of dog sign. Her dog was not big, and she still can't control the dog smh.
I'm surprised the lawyer-plaintiff does not realize she has no case. Her dog pulled toward the fence and engaged a dog barking on its own property. Also her dog should be on her outside away from the fences she is passing as she can see how upsetting it is to fenced-in dogs to have another dog near it's boundary.
Not his fault his dog was in his yard and behind the fence
People can be Booksmart, but streetsmart is another thing all together
Lack of common sense. The plaintiff is bitter at the Judge🤣🤣🤣
Even if a paw fits in a 2.5 inch gap, it’s unlikely that the snout of a German Shepherd would fit in the same gap and be able to grab the foot of another dog. I have to believe that the Cocker Spaniel’s foot went under the fence.
lolwut!! Didn't know beware of dog meant beware of dog? I hope the whole world sees this and never hires her as a lawyer. If she doesn't know the definition of the word "beware", what else will she play dumb with.
I'm not sure about this verdict. My common sense says that a beware of dog sign covers the property containing the dog not the sidewalk beyond that property. I can see this was a difficult call but there should have at the very least been shared responsibility. 👀
I think it's more likely that her dog ran and put his paw under the gate. Even if the homeowner's dog can put his paw under I don't see how it is that he can grab her dogs paw and pull it under to bite it .
I think her dog was trying to get through the fence to play or something and his dog thought it was an intruder and acted in self defense
The judge's decision is WRONG. A fence that has a sign 'beware of dog' to me means that if I enter the property 'BEWARE' but not if I walk in front of the gate. Even if her dog pulled her closer to the fence, her dog isn't going to stick its own paw under the fence, so for the defendant's dog to have bitten her dog's paw means his dog stuck its mouth over the threshold and was now on public property to be able to grab the paw...
With that fence there I wouldn’t have thought a dog could reach under enough to actually cause harm to anyone, or anything!
She’s walking her dog on the sidewalk smdh His gate should be fortified where his dog doesn’t get out AT ALL!!
If there is a beware the dog sign, then keep your dog pulled close to you.
One thing you should never do is put up a "Beware of Dog" sign on your property. As the plaintiff stated, it could be construed in court that the sign indicates a viscous dog is on the property and the owner knew it was viscous. A smarter move would be a sign that just politey stated "Dog on Premises".
I put up a Beware of the Dog sign to let people know that I have a dog who will protect my property. And I have a right to do so.
But the plaintiff said she basically ignored the sign because she couldn't fathom the sign meant "beware of vicious dog".
@@barbarapaton4005 I agree you have a right to. I'm only stating that having such a sign could arguably be pitched to a jury that you knew your dog was viscous and you didn't take extraordinary efforts to protect people from it. You never know how a jury might be swayed. Saying "Dog on Premises" does the same thing without admitting the dog's ability to bite their ass off.
I disagree totally. You should ALWAYS put up a sign if you are afraid of your dog biting someone. You are warning people that you have a dog that may or may not bite. It becomes a liability issue. My friend had a dog that bit a cop when he reached in the fence.. My friend had a beware of dog sign. The cop said, I should not have reached in the fence after I saw the sign.
@@mymobilebuddy4392 yeah I don't know in what world a warning sign would be seen as an admission of guilt/liability
Plaintiff 'my mother loves you and told me to tell you hello'. Judge: Never says tell yr mom I said hello.
Oh, glad the plaintiff clarified her dog is a part of her family and very dear to her. Unlike the rest of us pet-owners...
😂😂 I was thinking the same thing when she said that....like, what???
@@amandadonaldson8748 🤣🤣🤣
hi.. everybody says that.. on these dog cases!. so how come it is now.. an act of ab.ominaton.. that she says it?.. be blessed
@@Cubanflowers the fact that you may agree this an abomination is concerning... the point is clear, and if you dont see it, please don't own or rescue a dog,like I have for 30 years. The point of the comment was that she cared so much about her animal. If she actually cared about her animal, she'd walk them across the street, or stepped away from the fence. It's this case and dozens of others that show Plaintiff's are at fault for not protecting their dogs and controlling them. Personal responsibility, period. Control you dog, period.
I wouldn't use her as my attorney. She wasn't even smart enough to get off the sidewalk to protect her dog and didn't abide by the tell tale sign. smh...
That's exactly why i have a beware of dog sign.. My dog isn't aggressive, but she is old and there have been people my dog just didn't like.. Dogs can sense a lot about a person..
Another example of how she has a pattern in her ruling. She's different with "Other" people
Tone is even different...watch about 20 episodes and see
The plaintiff is a beautiful woman.
The fact that JM didn't point this out had me yelling (in my head) at the screen... it had nothing to do with "pawS" plural, it's the other dog's MOUTH that was the the factor and it would be impossible for it's mouth to get under the fence, let alone grab ahold of another dog. Absolute nonsense.
Damn, playing the lawyer card didn't work for her
hi.. she didn't mention.. she was lawyer ..until MISS judge asked!..rewind video.. and try listen with your good ear...ok? yes!.... be blessed
@highlander666 She never mentioned anything about being a lawyer until JM asked her!
She takes absolutely no accountability smh that guy had his ducks in a row! Bravo
Beware of dog means not to come onto that property; it doesn’t mean don’t walk past that house. The point of the fence is to keep his dog in
It's ridiculous to say it's her fault . Think about if there is traffic coming and I'm walking my child , and my child was the one injured from just walking past someone's fence .
People gonna learn to stop having bad dog
I knew she wouldn’t win this case before even hearing it with the claim amount! She NEVER grants high amount since her shows budget is the one paying the judgement!
I seriously doubt a dog could pull another dog's leg under a gap that small with it's paw and if it was using it's mouth it would have been obvious. It's head would have had to have been sideways and it would be extremely hard to grab the dog's leg. It makes more sense that the dog that was bitten pushed it's leg, even if a little bit, under the gap and it was grabbed at that point.
Sorry she let her dog walk to the gate. Glad the dog is ok
Take accountability - She had the warning.
The judge never lets the people fully talk. She’s not even done telling her story before she cuts her off to see the video
The plaintiff is so pretty!! 🫶
I think this case would have gone the other way if the defendant had a pitbull instead of a german shepherd because she does not like pitbull at all
I am terrified of dogs, no matter how small or large!
I felt bad for the plaintiff, but she was dumb for staying after she saw the sign 😂
I have a small yorkie and live in the country. New neighbors moved in down the road. They have a pitbull and I’m assuming an underground electric fence type setup. A quarter mile the other direction, the same thing with 2 large dogs. My yorkie does not go for walks other than in my yard. She is too precious to me to take that chance.
Apparently it's impossible for the plaintiff to put themselves between the fence and her dog. She could have moved her dog to her right side away from the fence. And the plaintiff even admitted she wasn't close to the fence but has a long leash
They steady talking about the street with all that grass around. Just walk through the yard until you can get back to the sidewalk lol
Lawyers don't always win in small claims court !!
Their dog was obviously on his property and he was doing his due diligence by having a fence and a sign. What more could he have done? She should keep her dogs on a tighter leash instead of letting them roam into someone else’s yard next to their fence.
