I started this bylaw in 1992 after a three yearold boy who lives about 10 miles from me was attacked by two Rottweilers. I feel there is nothing to hide in the information of the attacks in that it was this situation and the events that followed for the next three weeks that made me decide I had to do something.
The owner of the dog was on vacation and left his son in charge of the dogs. The son lived approximately 8 miles away and according to neighbours and the police did not come to the house for several days to check on the dogs. We had a very severe snow storm and the dogs walked out of the minimal kennel they were being kept in.
This meant that in the middle of January the dogs were uncared for and unfed for several days. The average daily temperature at that time was in the area of -20 F or -28 C. This in no way excuses what happened next, but maybe explains again that it is uncared for and untrained dogs that are the basis for most dog attacks. These dogs also fall into the categary of the most likely to cause injury:intact males between the ages of 1 and 3 years.
Now during the first court appearance the owner of the dogs asked for a postponement of the proceedings so he could get letters to prove the "value" of his dogs. In the meantime the boys mother had to drive 100 miles from the hospital and her sons bed to attend this and listen to a totally uncaring, arrogant person speak about dollar values. The judge did give him a postponement, but also shocked the owner by rescheduling to one week later. To keep a really long story short, the owner had trouble in his claim to value as the dogs had not recieved any of the required innoculations or had any licenses been purchased. The dogs were ordered destroyed and the owner went looking for more dogs to buy.
The purpose of the by-law is not to stop dogs who injure from being euthanised, but to try and stop more dog attacks. I have tried to put the whole thing in perspective in that the owner is resposible for dogs actions and also in an attempt to help local enforcement officers who largely receive no training in the legallities of animal control, only in how capture strays. This by-law shows where they can get help from the OPP ( using Ontario Provincial statutes) or the RCMP (Federal laws).
If anyone is facing breed specific restrictions in your area there is tremendous information sources out there at your disposal. If I can be any help in locating them let me know.

bite or injury from the attack was the result of improper or negligent training, handling or
maintenance, the dog licence to the "owner" shall be reissued with conditions and restrictions
imposed for the training, socialization, handling and maintenance of the dog to protect the
public. It must be properly concluded that the "owner" is able and willing to properly carry
out these restrictions and conditions and that a similar incident is not likely to occur in the
future. Prior to the re-issuance of a permanent licence, the "owner" of the dog shall show
proof that he/she and the dog have successfully completed a training course and show proof
of an "enclosure" where the "vicious" dog must be kept is outside the residence when the
"owner" or custodian is not physically present with the dog when the dog is on the "owner's"
