Todd and Bronwyn have six Boxers: Zoe, Claire, Francis, Petey, Remy, and Freddie. The dogs are all over Bronwyn’s Instagram page and have been featured in recent episodes of RHOSLC.
During a recent visit to Bronwyn’s home, Heather Gay was disgusted to see pee and feces everywhere. Not only do the dogs do their business wherever they please, they also have a reputation for attacking delivery people.
The delivery driver allegedly suffered “mental anguish, emotional trauma, and permanent disfigurement”
According to The U.S. Sun, Todd was sued twice in the past two years for his dogs allegedly attacking delivery drivers. Bronwyn wasn’t named in either suit.
In a suit filed on February 28, 2024, an Instacart employee claimed she was delivering an order to the couple’s home. “During the delivery, she was suddenly attacked by one of Bradley’s dogs, which was on the property,” the docs claimed. The woman claimed she was “attacked, bitten, and scratched” by the pet.
The documents went on to claim the employee “sustained significant physical injuries, suffering both special and general damages including, but not limited to medical expenses, pain and suffering, mental anguish, emotional trauma, permanent disfigurement, loss of earning capacity, lost wages, and loss of capacity and enjoyment of life.”
And she said this wasn’t the first time the dogs had attacked someone. The dogs “have bitten [and] attacked other visitors … on the property,” she noted.
The driver is requesting the court award her damages to be determined at trial, but no less than $60,000. She also wants interest on all damages, plus costs and attorney’s fees.
Todd requested the court dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice.
A very similar case was filed just months earlier
A few months before that incident, an Amazon driver claimed he was attacked by the family’s dogs. In a separate lawsuit filed on April 12, 2023, the employee sued Todd for a similar attack that allegedly occurred in April 2022.
The suit alleges that the employee “was suddenly attacked by Bradley’s dogs.”
He claimed he was “attacked, bitten, and scratched by the dogs,” sustaining injuries similar to the female driver. He alleged “significant physical injuries, suffering both special and general damages including, but not limited to medical expenses, pain and suffering, mental anguish, emotional trauma, permanent disfigurement, loss of earning capacity, lost wages, and loss of capacity and enjoyment of life.” Hmmm, sounds like they may have the same attorney.
He claimed to know that the dogs had “attacked other visitors and guests on the property.” He also alleged that Todd “did nothing to contain his dogs or prevent them from attacking” him.
The Amazon driver requested the court to award him “no less than $300,000.” He also asked for interest on all costs, including attorney’s fees.
While the Amazon driver’s case remains open, the Instacart employee’s case was dismissed “due to inactivity.” However, the parties in the Instacart case reached a “mutual settlement,” according to court docs. The amount of the settlement was not revealed.
Todd reportedly has a net worth of $45 million, as evidenced by the lavish Palm Springs vacation he just treated the ladies of RHOSLC and their husbands to. Besides a private jet and a $20,000 nightly guest house, Todd also presented his wife of 10 years with a $4 million diamond necklace for their anniversary.
