If you have a case where a dog has bitten you or your child while it loosely law was in violation of a local line, here's what you need to know.  A Georgia leash law or statute makes the dog owner legally responsible, if the dog causes attack was careless management of the owner's or allow the dog too loose without any restraints run.

To successfully pursue a dog bite claim of ownership, must prove State in the first part of Georgia Code section 51-2-7 the victims of the condition. In this section, "vicious in the proof tendency, it shall be sufficient to show that the animal was on heel or leashed by a regulation of the city, county, or consolidated Government be, and which said animal at the time was not on heel or on a leash." says, For example, can the line relevant local laws stipulate that all dogs on the grounds of the dog owners need to be limited or must be on a leash not on the owner's site.

Next, the victim must show that the dog bite is a result of the owner's "careless management or... allows the animal may go." An example of careless management would be the failure to close a gate, through which the dog could escape.

In other words, a violation of a law with result line careless management combines or allow the dog to go, without a leash for a dog bite liability be successfully pursued.

It is interesting that Georgia is the only State that the negligence per se doctrine gives such meaning. Also, it is the only State that one "getrimmte down" version of the traditional negligence per se doctrine in Foundation statute bite dog is. An example of the liability under this part which would be Georgia articles is where routinely allow the dog owners their dog to outdoor go without a leash, in violation of a place of animal law, all dogs on a leash are held, and one day needed, the dog the block and bites a child playing in a neighbor entrance.    Accident square would put responsibility on the shoulders of dog owners, that animal control violating law. In other States, the victims would go outside of the Statute and the different elements per se prove the negligence required are, but the Georgia Statute contains the elements as part of the Statute.
