Once the naming of laws had significance and made them unique. Usually it was after the victim of a horrific crime. But now every law has a name! Enough!
As respects Dog Insurance, Good training, good care and a watchful eye are what is needed! Not a bureaucracy and additional cost to law abiding folk. I’m 42 years old and never was bitten by any animal.
Have we rounded up all the unlicensed and uninsured drivers in NY Yet? What about illegal hand guns and drugs?
The nicest/kindest dogs can be trained to be aggresive.
Why was this child permitted to get near any dog? Where were his parents?
I have found way to many parents are not teaching their children basic common sense. DO NOT GO NEAR DOGS YOU DON’T KNOW!!!!! How many parents teach their kids this rule or any other of the common sense rules.
Let’s look at the real problem. Who thinks up these possible laws. Do we not have problems beyond this that need serious attention.
I’ve been in the retail insurance business for 29 years now, and I’ve seen many dogs owned by my insureds who were the nicest, tamest, sweetest things you could imagine. That is, until they bit somone. There are times when dogs misenterpret situations or actions and they will bite or jump up on someone, even when they are not doing it in anger, and may cause injury. By creating a separate insurance policy, homeowners companies may become more willing to write homeowners policies, and the owners of dogs, especially the breeds that are historically more likely to cause injury, will be the ones bearing more of the burden of this exposure.
I will be surprised if this passes. Not that I don’t agree that dog owners should carry Liability Insurance, but I just do not know if making it a law for licensing will fly. What about cats and other animals? I think care needs to be taken by owners as well as other people to keep dangerous dogs away from people. Parents also need to teach children to be careful around pets.
The owners of the problem dogs (doesn’t matter breed) won’t be the ones buying the insurance – look how many are not even licensed and that law has been around how long?
How much for my 3 kid aggressive Chihuahuas? Kids attempt to grab, pack barks, kids run, the chase is on. Scared Chi will bite small kids. Parent training is needed!
Last time I saw a dog, it had four legs and could move quite freely on its own. Perhaps Ms. Adams should advocate parents teaching their children to run faster.

The people whose dogs are a problem are not going to obey this law.

Sure, government can solve all life’s problems.
Mandatory auto liability insurance has solved the problem of bad drivers, hasn’t it?

More Bureaucratic B.S. Some of these politicians should step into the REAL world once in a while
