Some dogs can become aggressive and bite other people or animals.
Under the law any dog (of any breed or type) can be considered dangerous in any place if it is not kept under control. The dog doesn’t have to bite anyone; it could just show aggressive behaviour that makes someone feel in fear for their safety.
If you are in fear of your safety, please contact the police immediately to report the dangerous dog. Please let us know when you have reported this to the police by completing this e-form. Tell us the incident report number and the officer’s name so that we are aware of this problem and can work with the police if required.
If you have concerns about the welfare of a pet, you should contact the RSPCA.
