Hey everyone, I really need some advice and I'm feeling frustrated and helpless at this point.
There is a very aggressive stray dog in our neighborhood who has already bitten multiple people. We have contacted the authorities and had him removed from the area 2-3 times already, but he keeps coming back. It feels like nothing is working and people in our area are scared to go outside.
Some details:
- The dog has bitten several people in our area
- We have reported him and had him removed multiple times but he always returns
- He is getting more aggressive over time
- Families with children and elderly people in our area are especially at risk
What I'm asking:
- What are the best steps to take when animal control keeps returning the dog?
- Is there any legal action we can take?
- Can we demand the dog be permanently taken in instead of just removed temporarily?
- Has anyone dealt with a situation like this before? What worked for you?
We don't want to hurt the dog, we just want our neighborhood to be safe. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
