I have an account on the books that's a large retail chain. About 2 years ago a customer had her dog in the store despite signs that it wasn't welcome. It bit a toddler that was trying to pet it.
The store paid $50,000 because no employee told the woman to get her damn dog out. They now have a strict policy to keep all pets out and will call the police if customers won't leave their pets outside.
For all you on the personal responsibility bandwagon, the dog owner's homeowners policy paid out its limits. Blame was assigned something like 80/20.
