The court, after hearing, may make any order it deems appropriate to prevent the recurrence of such an incident, including but not limited to the removal of the animal from the area or its destruction by its owner. In making its decision, the court may consider:  (1) The vicious or dangerous propensities of the animal;  (2) The ability of the owner to adequately confine or remove the animal; and  (3) The necessity of any destruction of an animal in light of the health, safety, and welfare of the community.
