Jen jogs every morning and passes a farm where there is a big dog running loose. One day the dog bit Jen's leg and tore her expensive running suit. She informed the owner, but he refused to compensate Jen and denied that he had acted negligently. Moreover, he said his dog was trained to catch trespassers, and Jan was at fault. Jen sued the owner in a small claims court for a total of $1,400 which included her medical bills, lost wages, and the replacement of the running suit. Discuss what doctrine Jen can use and what damages she can claim.
