Your dog is considered dangerously out of control if it injures someone. Your dog is considered dangerously out of control if it makes someone worried that it might injure them. A court could also decide that your dog is dangerously out of control if it attacks someone’s animal. You can get an unlimited fine or be sent to prison for up to 6 months if your dog is dangerously out of control. If you let your dog injure someone you can be sent to prison for up to 5 years or fined. If you deliberately use your dog to injure someone you could be charged with ‘malicious wounding’.
