A:
More information is needed.
A dog owner has an ongoing duty to control, restraint and secure any dog. Thus, any dog posing immediate danger to others may be shot, especially if that animal is on someone else's property. However, you need to supply more information to a local state licensed professional to form an accurate legal understanding of that situation.
