What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas.
In the state of Texas, can animal control qurentine a dog if he injured his own owner, but the owner of the dog being qurentined, Knowingly knew the danger of breaking up a dog fight, and preceded to put their selves in that situation. By doing this the owener suffered a sprang wrist and a slight break in skin. Owener cleaned break in skin, but went to Doctor for sprang wrist not knowing he would call Animal Control by telling him what happened. Animal control arrived and took my statement and partners stament, both stating the exact same facts, as well both of us stating we knew the risk and we both knewingly took the risk knowing the possible outcome. We Did NOT want our dog being qurentined nor asked for out dog to be. Animal control gave us a opportunity to qurentine our dog at home and we said yes. They needed to verify Vacc. Records. Told them our vet and they called but could find no record of Vacc. So they told my partner that the dog needed to be brought to the pound for a 10 day qurentine, to observe any possible disease the dog my excibt if any. After 10 days we could pay all fees and get our dog back. But my question is can they do this if we are not the ones who call Animal Control and we both knowingly put ourselves in the situation to begin with?
