Description
Action to recover damages resulting from a dog bite. Plaintiffs are husband and wife, and the defendant is the father of the
plaintiff Donald Beijer. On May 10, 1958, the plaintiffs came to visit the defendant and his wife, who lived in the town of
Harmony in Price county. While there Donald Beijer became interested in a business located in the area and later purchased
the business. This extended their visit with his parents until the business transaction had been completed and until they
secured a place to live. The defendant was the owner of a German Shepherd dog, named Silver. The plaintiffs had two puppies that are not otherwise
described in the record, On the afternoon of July 16, 1958, the defendant and his wife, with some other guests, left on a
sight-seeing trip. Jane Beijer was left alone in the home. Silver was in the yard and the puppies were in the house. Jane
Beijer called Silver into the house and let the puppies out in the yard. She walked into the kitchen and got a drink of water.
Silver followed her and indicated that he wanted to be petted. She patted him on the head and then walked away. She then went
to the deep freeze to get out some meat for the evening meal. She testified that after she had obtained the meat and laid
it on a counter she turned around and saw Silver on his hind feet coming toward her. She threw out her right arm and hand
to fend off Silver and he bit her to the extent that his teeth met inside her hand. She further testified that he chewed on
her right hand three or four times. After she screamed Silver laid down. She wrapped her hand in a cloth, as it was bleeding
badly, and went to the phone to call her husband. He responded and took her to a doctor in Phillips, where her hand was treated.
