Sports Afield By TED KESTING A distinguished judge once re marked “There are high and low degrees among dogs as well as among men, and while the com mon coon dog has his value, it is not the same as that of the trained bird dog or the trained bloodhound.” Now if someone should kill your dog do you know how to figure his worth and how to collect damages? Renzo Dee Bowers, an attor ney who frequently writes about sportsmen and the law for Sports Afield magazine, explains that you are saddled by law with the bur den of proving two things and un til you have proved them your antagonist is not required to open his mouth: first, that he killed or injured your dog; and second, that the animal was of a specified money value. The defendant must then prove that the conditions confronting him when he shot or otherwise killed your dog justified the act; or, that the animal was either without value, or of much less value than you claim. A man who takes his chances on deliberately killing a hunting dog finds comfort in knowing that statutes exist in nearly all states upon which he can rely for legal justification of his act. That of New Jersey is typical. It reads: “A person may humanely destroy a dog in self-defense, or which is found chasing, worrying, wound ing or destroying any sheep, lamb, poultry or domestic animal.” This defense is used in 95 per cent of suits prosecuted for wrongfully killing hunting dogs. There are a few, but only a few, other conditions and circum stances recognized by the courts as justification. The defendant is bound to prove that the animal was actually do ing one of the prohibited acts at the moment he was killed. It is not enough for him to say he thought the dog was chasing, worrying, wounding or destroying sheep, lamb, poultry or domestic animal. Killers of hunting dogs have been judicially declared liable for the value of the animal killed un der these circumstances: a dog killed through malice or evil in tent; killed through some act of negligence or carelessness; by in excusable mistake in identity or failure to perceive the exact char acter of the act the suspected dog is committing at the moment; or merely because the animal is tres passing. Standards of determining worth are simple. If the dog has a mark et value in the neighborhood, that value is ordinarily accepted as a measure of damages allowable. If it has no market value its special value to the owner may be proved by showing its qualities, character istics and pedigree, and by testi mony of witnesses familiar with such qualities. ^hi til? it (Duer! y r HE RESULTS of a single decision can be appalling. A young man, returning by ship from a successful fortune hunt, stood on deck, and tossed into the air a large diamond, into which he had converted the fruits of his labor. Fellow pas sengers, sensing the risk he was taking, cautioned him against it. Self-confidence caused him to laugh away this friendly cau tion, as he said: “Oh no, I never miss.” Then one day he tossed it near the rail of the ship, just as the ocean gave a lusty swell, the deck rolled him back too far to catch it, and it went to the bottom of the sea.
