A 50-year-old Castletown man has denied failing to comply with a dog control order.
Stewart Gray, of James Road, also denies keeping a dangerous dog, and failing to keep a dog under proper control.
The first matter is a criminal offence, relating to an order imposed on February 25, but the other two are civil matters.
The allegations are said to relate to a Bulldog Crossbreed called Kendrix.
