UPDATE: Governor Greg Abbott has vetoed a bill that would have increased the criminal penalties for owners after a dog is deemed dangerous.
, or the Ramon Najera Act, had passed through the House and the Senate before it was sent to Abbott’s desk last month.“Texas’s existing criminal laws penalize attacks by dangerous dogs — so much so that felony arrests have already been made of the dog owners responsible for the tragic attack that took the life of a distinguished Air Force veteran in San Antonio, and that was the catalyst for House Bill No. 4759.
The justice system should be allowed to work without the overcriminalization found in this bill. I look forward to working with the author to create investigations and procedures that stop dog attacks before they happen.”TheThe Ramon Najera Act would have allowed for anonymous reporting to Animal Care Services and would have made it easier for ACS to remove dangerous dogs.81-year-old“My dad, he was a military man.
