We live in WA. Recently got neighbor's approval and put a fence. Instructed the fencing company to put it 6" in our lot. Neighbor didn't tell us their dog fence wire was right on boundary/flag it although they did move their stuff away from the area. While digging the post holes, our agent cut their dog's invisible fence wire in 3 places. Neighbor told us that it was "a simple matter of splicing the wire" and asked us to fix it. We got wire from home depot and spliced it in. Neighbor walked around with the dog collar testing it and told us his panel said the circuit was complete so we were "all set". We took that as a verbal agreement that we had done our part. Two weeks later neighbor gave us a 140$ bill from the invisible fence company as their dog was getting out and they needed to fix the invisible fence as our splicing didn't do the job. Are we liable after their verbal assurance that we were all set? They are now knocking on our door daily and asking for money and wouldn't go away till we answer.
