If an unleashed dog pursues and bites someone in Pennsylvania, there are only 2 circumstances that would require euthanasia of the attacking dog: If the human being was killed or if the dog was found to be dangerous by a judge after a prior attack and the instant dog bite was unprovoked.
The Pennsylvania dog attack attorney has assisted many PA Dog Wardens in the prosecution of Harboring a Dangerous Dog citations pursuant to Section 502 (A) of the PA Dog Law. Once a dog owner has been found guilty of this charge, there are multiple requirements/restrictions placed upon them. The dog must be neutered/spayed. The vicious canine must be muzzled anytime it is in public. A microchip is required to be implanted. An annual fee is required. Warning signs must be posted on the dog owner’s property. Liability insurance must be purchased.
