Are you serious?? Someone can force you to euthanize your dog to test it? I thought they would always just quarantine. Can they do this with a dog that is up-to-date with rabies vaccines or is this just for unvaccinated dogs?
That really angers me...some kid walks into YOUR yard and goes up to YOUR dog and gets bit and then the parent can have the dog killed. That is rediculous. I'd be sueing or something in return (i'd probably be threatening to kill THEM honestly)..that is crazy
