The Biter Collar is placed on a pet who has bitten a stranger recently. This collar would be of a easily recognizable colour, or colour combination; say, lime green with red stripes.
It may be mandated by a complain from the bitee, or opted by the responsible dog owner.
Persons confronting
a dog with a Biter collar would be well advised to keep their distance.
Nothing says "Don't Touch" like a muzzle

how about red, as in *tasted blood* |
|
|
Wouldn't a brightly-coloured muzzle be more appropriate than a collar? |
|
|
hitch it up a notch tighter each time it bites someone. let it out a notch everytime it bites a politician or a traffic warden. can't believe I said that. |
|

Dogs with a biting on record have usually bitten as a result of mishandling by a kid (pulls ear, tail, pats too hard), and an overreaction by their parent. Naturally there exceptions to this, but an unprovoked attack is a rarity, and most of the offenders are destroyed. |
|
|
Human predators are registered and tracked in a database just as biting dogs are; however, they are far more dangerous as they can disguise their emotions, intentions, identity, etc. |

I can size up a dog in 30 seconds, but there are people out there who I may never be able to assess. I say put the collars on the people who bite its likely (and hopefully) the only way youll ever know. |

I can see these things would become status symbols with people who wish to exude a 'hard' image. Though perhaps not many people would be fooled by a poodle with a code red collar. |

Biting people is a capital offense in the US. If you're a dog. |

We had a neighbor who had a nasty little mutt that would snap and snarl at people; he was obliged to put a muzzle on it when he took it out of the house. Methinks that is a better solution all round: the muzzle warns wannabe petters of the dog's disposition, and the dog is prevented from biting those who do not recognize the warning sign (children, for example). |

News bulletin: Man bites dog. |
|
|
Actually admitting beforehand that you know your dog is a biter will dramatically increase your level of liability if the dog bites again. It's an indication that you know your dog is dangerous, and that you willingly failed to take proper precautions to prevent it from happening again. |

- Does your dog bite?
- No.
(leans over, is immediately bitten by dog)
- I thought you said your dog doesn't bite!
- That is not my dog.

Hmmm.... After this collar becomes well-known throughout the World, you will have every dog adorning the collar; because the owners want people to think that their dogs are ferocious. |
|
|
Burglaries will dip, since burglars will not be able to differentiate between lethal and cuddly dogs. |
|
|
Muggings will dip for the same reason. |
|
|
A whole new genre of street crime will come into play where criminals let loose a bunch of strays with these collars (say... into a bank) and use the ensuing confusion to carry out their 'business'. |

For changing the face of the planet... I give you all I can (which in this case, is only a [+]). |

Cedar, in those circumstances, I think you'll find it is spelled "deurrrg." |

In the state of Victoria, Australia there is legislation that requires "dangerous dogs" to be specially registered and identified as such. |

Do they have to wear a muzza? |
|

Ahh, [bristolz]. Lady, we miss you. |

Do we need a día de los semi-panaderos muertos? |
