(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order prescribes the form for a dog control notice which can be served under section 1(1) of the Control of Dogs (Scotland) Act 2010. A notice in the prescribed form may be served by an authorised officer appointed by a local authority where a dog has been out of control. The notice sets out the reasons why an authorised officer considers the dog was out of control and specifies what steps the recipient of the notice must take to bring and keep the dog under control.
