Sandra Cornelia was found guilty of harboring a dangerous dog after her dog attacked her neighbor's dog and incurred veterinary costs. Cornelia appealed the decision but was later found guilty again at a de novo hearing. The defendant argued that dog-on-dog attacks should not be included in the definition of a domestic animal under the Dog Law. The court examined the definition of domestic animal and whether excluding dogs from it would lead to an absurd result.
