What legal actions can be taken if a neighbor's unleashed dog causes harm or injury?

I’ve had a lot of experience with bite risk dogs in doggy daycare. We had a lot of last chance. We understood the dogs were badly bred or had past situations or even just bad. Owners. We got bit and hospitalized a lot for minimum wage . But we understood deep down it wasn’t the dogs. It was the environment around them and again bad breeding. Also fuck day cares .
