The Dangerous Dog Ordinance in Nebraska hopes to make people more responsible pet owners, by creating consequences for the owners of dangerous dogs. While originally the focus of this ordinance was breed specific (targeting pit bulls in particular), it has since moved closer to the root of the problem: the dog owner.
"We don't want to focus too much on the dog because at the end of the day it's the responsibility of the dog owner and usually when we have a dog incident it's because we have an irresponsible dog owner," said John Spatz, chairman of the Lincoln, Nebraska City Council.
Nebraska lawmakers have re-defined a “dangerous dog”, focusing more on the individual behavior of the dog than it’s breed. If a dog attacks a person or another dog in a vicious manner, the owner could face up to one year in jail, and a $1000 fine. Repeat attacks could cost the owner a felony, plus five years of jail time and a $10,000 fine.
Furthermore, there is focus on the prevention of dog attacks, by classifying “potentially dangerous dogs”. Dogs will be considered potentially dangerous if they have chased viciously, or attacked (before the ordinance was in place), either a person or another dog unprovoked. Owners of potentially dangerous dogs are expected to comply to a series of tasks to help keep a “potentially dangerous dog” from becoming a “dangerous dog”, including carrying insurance, attending dog behavior & responsibility classes, as well as spaying or neutering the pet.
