legal question

has anyone heard of or experienced a legal civil case when a person sells a dog to another but during the time the buyer was hunting with the dog, the seller may guarantees and statements about things the dog would or would not do
and after when the dog was being hunted the dog did the exact opposite
examples a guarantee was made that the dog would not back another do
when asked about running off game he no he would not ect..
I know in some states these things constitute a verbal contract especially if a witness for the buyer
any thoughts ?

Sounds like a typical dog deal to me.

Dog Deal

You might get a attorney to send a letter for you at a reasonable price. If that does not work, you can always file a claim in small claims court without a attorney. Using a attorney would probably cost as much as you paid for the dog. Small claims court would be the cheapest way for you to go and you most likely will win a judgement. If the judgement is not paid you can file a lien on his home or property that would eventually be paid if he sells or tries to refinance his home. If he has no real property or assets to attach, then a judgement would not help. Some would pay the judgement to protect their credit as a judgement shows up on their credit report. I would definitely file a claim to set an example. Dave
