Instructions for Notice to Dog Owners:

 

  1. Obtain the correct address where dog(s) reside(s).
  2. Obtain the name of the owner of the property where the dog resides.  You can find out information about ownership by looking it up on the website www.KnowX.com.
  3. Complete the Notice to Dog Owner form.  There is a sample completed form for your reference.
  4. Send copies of the notice to the following persons (all, if possible, or as many as you can:
    • The resident of the property
    • The owner of the property, if different from the resident
    • The local animal control officer/department
    • For our “Dog Database”            Roy Tocha c/o NFBC

P.O. Box 211

Buffalo, NY 14226-0211

We have tried to set up a long-term approach to assist NFBC members/guests in reporting unleashed dogs that are a hazard to cyclists.  By documenting and warning dog owners and dog control officers, we might be able to reduce the number of incidents and alert dog owners of their responsibilities.

At the very least, if several warnings are issued to the same dog owners and/or address, we will have a database to refer to should the worst case scenario (a dog/bike accident) occur.  A record of previous warnings could assist the injured cyclist should a lawsuit arise.

 

Please feel free to print out and use these forms.  

Safe riding!
