'Guidance for enforcers on dangerous dogs law'
Link.
What is dangerous here is that instead of a criminal trial before a jury of 12 peers, and the beyond reasonable doubt standard of proof, it is a civil matter before a magistrate, and the standard of proof is on the balance of probabilities. All it requires is someone to think a dog is dangerous, or that someone thinks a dog owner is irresponsible. It is frightening.

Definitely one for the local press. Embarrass the bastards with their own stupidity. The'll look really good in the papers trying to have a go at a 55 year old with a crossbreed when there are thugs out there with pit bulls and rottweilers running loose and nothing is said.
