It wouldn't take much for a lawyer to find out who the lienholder is and who insures the property, then send them both letters describing the incident, as well as a copy of the police report. I'll bet the bank and the insurance company will take care everything else for you.

My wife is taking them to small claims court to recover the vet bills and possibly the cost of pirate.
My suggestion was to tell them when she saw them that they had a choice, pay up or we get a lawyer and go after their homeowners or at the very least send them all the police reports and let them make the call. I do like the part about including the lien holder.

Check with your lawyer. Filing a claim against their homeowners policy should start wheels in motion as others have indicated on this tread. Neither the homeowner or the insurance company want the liability of having a dog with a violent history. While they may turn down the claim, they will request the dog be removed (with proof) or they will cancel the policy. The next time it could be a human !

Here is the yellow dog project. Perhaps we should have a red ribbon for dangerous dogs.

I honestly do not think I would be more devastated if something happened to one of my boys.

I find that to be a bit of an odd statement.
