Thanks to the moron legislators in the UK Parliament, since 2016 you can get 6 months if someone fears that your dog will injure them and 5 years if it does injure them + death sentence for dog in both cases. This includes trespassers / those with criminal intent on your property https://www.gov.uk/control-dog-public Not sure what the record of enforcement on this has been like. 2 Quote Link to post

Its getting worse here, turning into a nanny state,in a time guard dogs are almost a necessity.But its the poor old dog doing his job that always pays the ultimate price. 3 Quote Link to post

Like all dog legislation in this country, it's an absolute mess, so vague in it's wording a good brief should shred it to bits. One bit of it " a dog is dangerously out of control if someone thinks it might injure them". I've been walking dogs and people have freaked out when I've been feet away, in these peoples opinion a dog just walking might injure them judging by their reaction. When we were growing up, we got the odd bite, we didn't demand the dog be put to sleep, we were told to be more careful and we knew which dogs to avoid! 3 Quote Link to post

Same here,mum would tell you,don't go near that dog it will bite,end of story.I've been bitten multiple times by my wife's chihuahuas,and knocked out twice,winded and smashed into by the running dogs,The guard dogs have never put a mark on me,yet people say their dangerous around the family.To me running dogs are unintentionally dangerous around small kids.

Nothing inperticular , I don’t need a dog of the sort of caliber that these lads are talking about , the original post is about guard dogs , any dog that barks and alerts me that there is someone around is good enough for me if they can wake me up or alert me that there someone there I’ll do the rest , and if I’m not there and someone came snooping about then it doesn’t really matter what dog I got if they want it bad enough they will get it . Seen collie /lurches/ mongrels / terriers dogs not let people in gardens and who would bite if someone did . 4 Quote Link to post
