The Meaning of a "Potentially Dangerous Dog"
“Potentially Dangerous” dog is a dog that when unprovoked:
- bites a human or a domestic animal;
- chases or approaches a person in any public place in a menacing fashion or apparent attitude of attack; or
- any dog with a known propensity, tendency, or disposition to attack unprovoked, to cause injury, or to cause injury or otherwise to threaten the safety of humans or domestic animals.
“Dangerous Dog” is any dog that:
- inflicts severe injury on a human being without provocation. Severe injury is one that results in broken bones or disfiguring lacerations requiring multiple sutures or cosmetic surgery.
- kills a domestic animal without provocation while the dog is off the owner's property; or
- has been previously found to be potentially dangerous because of injury inflicted on a human and thereafter aggressively bites, attacks, or endangers the safety of humans.
