Dogs Are Worth More Than The Replacement Cost

Report: Denver Woman Awarded $65,000 For Dog’s Death

In a precedent-setting move a judge awarded a woman money for the emotional costs from her dog's death.   Ruthie the dog was only 18 months old when a maid service caused her dog to be hit by a car then failed to call a veterinary service. 

We are seeing precedents set in how our society treats animals in the legal arena.  Hopefully we will see some upgrades in the law where hoarding and puppy mills are concerned, as well as more timely trials.
