Pond and dog

Apr 18th, 2007, 10:04 AM

Neighbor has small yard pond which he said my dog chewed up his pump. Being good neighbor I told him I would cover pump replacement cost. He now drops off estimate for lining, pump, $1300 labor which is way overboard. Who is responsible for repairs if pond is non-fenced area, about 15' from property line on side yard? Does this fall under attractive nuisance? Thanks

You certainly can dispute the high cost but you normally are liable if your dog did the damage.
