Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

I am divorced. My son spend every other weekend with his dad. If my son get bitten by a dog while being with his dad during the weekend, can I ask for the dog to be removed from that house? The dog is aggresive and my son is afraid of coming back. I had to take my son to an emergency room because of this incident.
