The bill’s sponsor is Tipp City State Sen. Bill Beagle, who told fellow lawmakers today that the dog owners faced only minor charges.
The bill would increase the penalties for dangerous dog owners who fail to control their animals. Beagle noted it does not focus on any one breed, but covers all dogs who pose a threat to people’s safety.
The bill now goes to Ohio house members for their consideration.
