Dogs that are chained are 3 times more likely to bite not to mention it is cruel. There is probably truth to the owner's bragging that the dog has bitten twice before.
There are several communities in FL that have anti chaining laws and they are in densely populated areas (like TV) mainly in southern FL. Unfortunately those laws aren't here but should be. While it isn't a short term fix, you might go to your state rep and ask that a bill be written. There should be little resistance.
