The owner of a dog that has been declared to be dangerous or a nuisance by a court may petition the district court to remove the dangerous or nuisance dog designation 18 months after the judicial declaration was issued. A copy of the petition shall be filed with the district attorney. The court may remove the dangerous or nuisance dog designation and eliminate any requirements of this part if the owner of the dog has not violated this part and any orders of the court, and if the court is satisfied from the evidence that the dog is no longer dangerous.
