I am not sure if this is the correct forum, but here it goes. We live in Missouri.
My neighbors have a big dog. He is only allowed in his yard, which is large and fenced. He is a good dog, but does guard his home. The dog has NEVER bitten anyone before and is very good natured.
A woman walked up to the fence and leaned over it, and she was bitten in the face by him. The homeowners did not know the woman was coming, or they would have restrained the dog, but as it turned out, she just walked up to the fence looking for a child that was playing in the backyard.
Are the homeowners responsible? She doesn't want any injury money, just the lost week of wages that she took off to heal. She is fine now and there is little evidence left that she was bitten, though she did require stitches on her face.
Thanks.
