The owner may be prosecuted for failing to control their dog but this is usually dealt with by civil action. As I understand it, and unless the law has changed since my day, the only time the Police may become involved is for deliberate cruelty to animals, though travellers seem to have a get out of jail card for that, or for criminal damage when a dog is injured or killed through negligence by other than the dog's owner. No real need to educate the Police, Julia, only dog owners as to what the various legislation allows.<br />PenseivatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-3160710607143337852016-10-04T10:34:43.719+01:002016-10-04T10:34:43.719+01:00its a bit of off you julia them dogs is lightening...its a bit of off you julia them dogs is lightening and wen i as finshed me donuts they is alus gonewpc jaggednoreply@blogger.com
