If losing your animal will cause over $5,000 of pain and suffering, I recommend putting it on a $20 leash.

I’d just point out for those curious that the $5,000 limit on non-economic damages would apply even to a leashed dog that was intentionally killed. The statute is TCA § 44-17-403. Thanks for watching -Chris

Morale of the story, keep your dog on a leash!!! The world does not revolve around you... rules apply to you too... keep your dog on a leash. Good for the state of Tn to be preemptive in protecting our rights.

Take the dog to a dog park if you want to let it off leash. Otherwise, leash laws are there to protect that animal from harm - especially from other people and vehicles! Hands down completely uncaring and negligent dog owner. Shame on him 🤬

Nashville government website now has a press release from the Nashville police on this incident, dated yesterday. From what the dog's owner told police, the dog was 20 feet from the owner when it spotted a squirrel and "took off". The owner pushed the button to activate the dog's shock collar, but the dog did not respond to the shock collar. This apparently put the man that shot the dog in the dog's path, and he shot the dog when it got within 3 feet of him. He told police he thought the dog was attacking him. Sounds like this incident proves that the park rules on use of a leash aren't wrong. A shock collar is not a leash and cannot be depended on to be as effective as a leash.

KEEP YOUR DOGS LEASHED! A dog park is different from a people park. That needs to be established first. I personally had a young German Shepard off a leash run at me aggressively in my driveway after parking my motorcycle. I didn’t know this young dog and if it wasn’t for the owners running up to grab it seconds later I would have shot that dog. I’m a firm believer that every owner of a large dog should have it properly trained or leashed. Do not let your untrained or unmanageable dog run free.

So I have a service dog. We take him off leash to task. I wonder if this law would still take place for my dog?? ❤ (we only u leash to task because we are scared they will hurt our boy) 😢 This is sad… I don’t think this is reasonable… defense has to align with the issue… :( My dog is worth more then 5 grand 😭 he’s literally priceless he does stroke alert for my handicap hubby! I hope u do well and help them 😢❤

which bit of "dogs have to be on a leash" are you having trouble understanding? Nothing in there about service dogs, if a law says no dogs except service dogs ok but you are not above the law.

The laws for service dogs are different. You should educate yourself on the laws that protect you at the state and federal level. I think you’ll be able to relax.

Leash laws tend to be very local, so be sure to look up the local city or town codes where you live. I would say, at least in Nashville, there’s a little bit of confusion about these laws because the leash law in metro parks is stricter than the more general leash law that prohibits dogs from “running at large.” (Arguably a remote shock collar would be sufficient control under the general leash law, but is not sufficient in a park.) So be sure to check for park specific laws. Thanks for watching - Chris

@@drno4837 that’s not true when an dog is tasking u are allowed to unleash for tasks. Especially if leash interferes that’s in most counties. I happen to know that tbh but it has to be DURING A task.(medical alert or like PTSD responding)

@@drslawfirm I agree when I was stationed in TN the laws were a bit different ❤️ also it’s less about laws and more about another dog biting my dog. My dogs are trained and have never been in a dog fight. That would take back their service training I’m sure lol ❤️❤️❤️

The law is perfectly fine. The owner is at fault, & only them. The leash law is there for a reason. Point blank period. If you don’t like the laws then move.

@@itiz_me4942 You are misguided in thinking it's okay for the dog owner to murder an innocent person in order to somehow right the wrong of losing his dog to violence. A dog is not equal to a human being and taking an innocent human life is wrong period.

@itiz_me4942 do you legit not realize how psychopathic that statement is?? Even say that its worst case scenario and the dog wasn't doing *anything* to the guy that shot him. And I'm an animal lover, I have literally gotten in physical fights when I've seen animals being abused. Does that justify killing innocent people who had nothing to do with it? Think about what you're proposing
