Does anyone know what insurance company will cover renters insurance for dog owners?

I hope your daughter will be ok, the poor kid. As your daughter has received medical treatment the bite will have been reported. It's worth your while to chase it up.

The owner of the dog has probably been advised by her lawyer not to offer insurance details at this stage. Did this happen on the dog owners property or out in the street? I doubt renters insurance would cover this if the dog was outside of the owners rented property.

Where were you when the child was bitten? Where did it happen? Where was the owner of the dog?

What were the circumstances of the bite? These are questions that will be asked of you if you take legal action. Could you please add more details to your post so that anyone with legal experience will be able to give you their take on it.

Well Deb, the answer really depends on where you live. Are you in the USA? If not, we need to know what country you live in.

(Yahoo answers is open to the entire world!) In the USA, in the case of a dog bite, the doctor who treats the wound informs a local health agency. The health agency then contacts the dogs owner, who must quarentine the dog and provide proof of rabies vaccinations. Has this been done?

If not, that should be your top concern for your daughter. If that has been done, your next step would be to contact your local dog warden (assuming there is one where you live) or animal control. They can tell you what your next step would be.

And if you live somewhere that you cannot do that, then I'd go to the police. Surely then can step in and get you the information.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
