Can you go to jail if your dog bites someone?

You can go to jail in Kentucky if your dog bites someone.  The prosecuting authority and police will make a determination as to whether or not a crime has been committed.  It would be unusual for a person to go to jail as a result of a dog bite, but it is not impossible. Last week a dog killed a two-year-old in Louisville.  I would expect the owner of that dog to face criminal charges.
