In Bethel Acres, a family is worried for the safety of their children after discovering a pack of neglected dogs next door to their property. KFOR News<\/em> reports that more than a dozen dogs have been left outside without food or water in the summer heat. The dogs have been wandering to neighboring properties in search of food, according to the parents of the children, even killing some of the family\u2019s chickens. The father is concerned that the dogs may go after his children, saying, \u201c(The dogs) got the taste of blood. You don\u2019t know if it\u2019s going to turn on to a kid or what it could be next.\u201d<\/p>\n

The neighbor, who is keeping the dogs, says that he is trying to give away the animals. He claims that the dogs were dumped there and he has been doing his best to care for them but cannot afford to feed them all. The man says, \u201cThe pound won\u2019t let me take (the dogs) to them because we live out of county. If they come pick them up, they charge me $20 to $40.\u201d According to the Bella Foundation, an organization that helps animals in the Oklahoma City area, most shelters do not charge a fee to drop off a stray and there are several pet adoption agencies that would be willing to help.<\/p>\n

When dog owners are negligent in the care of their dogs and those dogs cause injuries to others, that dog owner is responsible for the damages caused. The Oklahoma City personal injury lawyers<\/a> at the Maples Law Firm will carefully analyze your case and fight for the best possible outcome. If you or a loved one has been injured by a dog bite, that was the result of negligence by the owner, call the Maples Law Firm today at (405) 705-5050.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
