How Do Pet Stores Handle Dog Urine?<\/span><\/p>\n

Typically, pet stores allow dogs on the premises. Obviously, if pets are allowed within the store, it is possible for them to urinate on the floor at any time. Some pet stores have cleaning stations set-up around the premises with paper towels and sometimes cleaning sprays; this allows guests to clean up after their dogs. Although pet owners will typically clean up after their pets, some might not clean up completely; some pet owners might just refuse to clean up. This means that the dog urine could present a slip hazard for unsuspecting guests. If you frequent large pet stores, you might be familiar with the fact that store employees can be hard to come across (besides those at the register). Therefore, it is likely for dog urine on floors to be ignored for hours, presenting a risk to guests.<\/p>\n

Can You Sue?<\/span><\/p>\n

Did you or a member of your family suffer harm in a dog urine slip and fall accident at a pet store? If so, you might have grounds to pursue an injury claim. Can you sue? Do you have the right to pursue a claim against the pet store? Could you sue the pet store owner? Based on the details surrounding the incident and the harm suffered, you might have grounds to sue \u2013 more specifically, you could sue based on the concept of premise liability. Based on premise liability, all property owners owe their guests a duty of care; that is, property owners have a duty to keep their premises safe and free of any hazards (like dog urine on the floor) that could contribute to incidents. If property owners fail to keep their premises safe, they could be liable for any harm suffered.<\/p>\n
