You can always press a case. Is the person liable? The judge or jury will decide. It may be wise to try arbitration or negotiation first. Consult a legal professional. They are cheap or free, at least upon an initial consultation. Fault (liability) can be subjective, and it will be determined by the court (if it comes to that).

Can you get sued for taking a dog you mistook for a lost dog?

Not if the dog had no collar or identification on it. If the dog does have a collar or identification you should do everything you can to contact the owner. Even if the dog does not have identification you should either take the dog to a local shelter or advertise widely that you have found a loose dog so the owner can reclaim their dog. The owner should be appreciative of your efforts to keep their dog from coming to harm if you found it wandering alone.

What do you do if your dog has attacked livestock?

You need to make sure your dog never gets loose again so it does not get into that situation again. You need to talk with the livestock owner and offer to pay for damages if the livestock was killed or if the attack causes veterinary expense to the owner. I do not know where you live but in our state a livestock owner has the right to shoot and kill any dog that is either chasing or attacking their livestock. You as the owner would be responsible for your dog being killed since you allowed it into the situation.
