Northern Echo, 29 April 1876: DAMAGES
FOR SHOTING A DOG. An action to recover the sum of £10, the value of a dog
which was alleged to have been wantonly shot at Great Ayton, on the 6th of
March last, was heard before Mr E R Turner, Judge, at Stokesley County Court,
yesterday. The case, which was tried by a jury, excited considerable interest,
and the court was crowded during the hearing of the suit. The plaintiff, for
whom Mr Dale, of York, appeared, was William Farndale, a joiner, living at
great Ayton, and the defendant was Thomas Hogg, a clerk, nineteen years of
age, residing at Nunthorpe, who was represented by Mr Fawcett, of Stockton. The
shooting at the dog was admitted. The dog was described as a black and tan
retriever, and a quiet, docile, harmless creature, much thought off by the
plaintiff, and everyone who knew it. It was six years old, and had never shown
any symptoms of rabies. On the night of the 6th ult, it accompanied its master
to the Buck Hotel, where it remained an hour and a half, being patted and
fondled in the meanwhile by several persons in the house; and it was alleged
that on its way home by itself it was deliberately shot, and had its head
nearly blown from its body. The defence was that the dog had shown a ferocity
on the road, which left no doubt in the minds of several persons that it was
mad. It attacked to Mr Hauxwell, who, however, was fortunate enough to get out
of the way, and it fell into a ditch by the roadside, where it lay frothing at
the mouth, and attempting to bite everything near it. This led the defendant,
after a short consultation with several persons standing round, to borrow a gun
from Mr Hauxwell, and shoot the poor animal. A number of witnesses were
examined on both sides. A veterinary surgeon, who examined the body of the dog,
found no symptoms of rabies. His Honour held that no one had a right to shoot
dog, even supposing it was mad, unless it was necessary to do so to protect
themselves. In the present case he thought the dog had been shot unwarrantably
and he recommended the jury to return a verdict for the plaintiff, but not for
the amount claimed. The jury, after deliberating some minutes, returned a
verdict for the plaintiff for £5 and costs, to be paid 8s months.
