The best thing would be to fence in your backyard. Tying a dog to the tree is not a safe way to keep him from getting into trouble and the court won't think so either. Fence in your yard and train him.





EDIT: Tying your dog up outside, will cause my dogs to become aggressive because they are bored and only have minimal space to run around. You really should have gotten a fence or thought about it before getting a dog.
Reply:Any dog that will lunge at another animal and actually chase them until they catch their target, or are escaped is a danger, I'm sorry to say.





Your dog needs aggression training, either by you or by a professional (if you can afford it, please use a professional). Dogs will behave themselves around people they perceive to be their superior, or dominant to them. These dogs WILL STILL attack children and other animals if they are so inclined, and the only way to prevent them from doing so is with behavior altering training that is consistent, and extensive.

Reply:You need to get the dog trained, he seems he is out of control. Take him to a dog trainer and work with the dog. The only way to show you have control of the dog.





It's society.
Reply:this dog is dangerous. You should be grateful if animal control says he has to be euthanized. And please don't get another dog until and unless you are willing to learn how to raise one without it being aggressive (first clue - don't tie your dog up outside - EVER!).
Reply:if this is the 2nd time, sounds like he IS dangerous...best let the authorities decide. just tell your side of the story when it comes to that.





i'm sorry if you lose your dog, but my opinion is that the safety of people are more important than animals
Reply:Is this a pit bull?





..
Reply:You say 2nd time - that's the first clue. 2nd clue - you don't mention anything about dog's breed. Third, you will go into hiding to save the dog. That may be the safest thing. Hide so we can't find you, other dogs can't find you, cats can't find you - no one. It is obvious that even though this dog, you say, was not "bred" to fight, it wants to. If it bit, broke the skin, it wanted to. Dogs are not bred to fight randomly, certain breeds have the tendency of desire because of breed development that started long before Micheal Vic and pit bulls.





The best way to save your dog now, keep him completely fenced in with no chance of escape to have a 3rd incident - life without parole. Sorry, sad but true. If your beloved dog were attacked by a 2 time offender and injured, you would demand justice.
Reply:How can you prove he isn't dangerous?? He has done this twice.. He sounds dangerous to me.. Sounds like the kind of dog that you would make sure couldn't get out and attack... Don't care whose mouth he eats jelly beans out of, if he is attacking, he is a menace and should be under better control... Once is an accident, 2 ce you knew he was a problem, and it's lack of care and control.
Reply:Just be truthful. Maybe you should keep him inside most of the time and just let him out for walks if that's possible.
