My neighbors 5 year old son came into my backyard without asking permission and came to my door and claimed my maltipoodel bit his legs there's no open skin or bitemarks. My dog is up to date on his shots. Am I reliable if the parents press charges?

You mean to ask whether you are "liable". Could be. But it doesn't appear there were any damages. No damages means no liability. Just to be safe, notify your homeowner's insurance carrier.
