Description:
New York: Harper Collins, 1991. First edition. Hardcover. Fine/fine. Fine in fine dust jacket. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. 303 pp. with index. In July, 1987, a man was sitting on his porch when a neighbor stormed onto his property chasing one of his tenants with a broom. The porch man's dog, Bandit, bit the neighbor. Six weeks later, the state of Connecticut ordered bandit destroyed, alleging he was a dangerous pit bull. Rather than submit to order, the owner took the case to court. Author Vikki Hearne, a nationally known dog trainer, was called by the owner as an expert witness to refute the state's claim. What ensued speaks to how human concepts like "justice" and "rights" apply to animals.
