MamaKitty, it would depend on the state.
In LA, for example, if a dog bit a child, it would HAVE to be on a leash...if it was found off its leash, the owner would be charged with a misdemeanor (arrested). If it bit someone else, it would be put down. period. no third chances. And the owner would be fined, and charged with a misdemeanor (arrested). I'm not saying your dog should be put down. That's just LA law. Its just an example of how one state handles pet issues.

As to dog custody, if dogs are treated differently under the law from state to state, they could certainly be divided differently in divorces from state to state, and the Judge has a LOT of leeway on how to rule in most states.
