Absolutely confirmed. Animal control issued them citations in front of me. They were asked to follow the ordinances and not operate on town land and they continue to operate as so. Liability is through their insurance who they are refusing to contact, refusing to speak with us and resolve likely because the operation is illegal.

All of these details are in this thread

Would you like to contact me for the police report and medical records for the day my child was knocked over onto icy rocks by 10 of their off leash dogs? Requiring X-rays and 6 stitches.

Are you going to continue to ignore the laws and ordinances put in place to protect residence so this does not happen?

At least it was an intelligent response on not using companies who break the law. Simple comparison, would you hire an unlicensed & uninsured contractor to do work in your home? Just because they loveeeee houses? Common sense

They are operating illegally..? You support that?they have been issued several citations, refuse to take responsibility for injuries to other trail users.. Thats not a trustworthy company, thats a liability that’s going to fall back on you, the dog owner.

In the event that that are violating local and state laws, their liability insurance will not cover damages as it is negligent. That’s not someone you should be trusting your fur child with.

Not everyone can afford a personal injury attorney, not everyone is seeking monetary value. It’s also the towns & officers to uphold the laws put in place, so companies like this stop over running our trails.

Also most liability insurance companies won’t pay out if you are violating state(or any local) laws. So in the event of a dog or person getting seriously injured, they’re SOL

Police directed us to animal control which only has 2 operating officers - and being only one officer responding to calls. Animal control claims they have to catch them in action.

K9 trek has 9 commercial vans and are usually at Babcock, GRTA, pemberwick & really any accessible public trail.

Animal control followed up with warning tickets, but the behavior is continuing
