Simple law change, charge the dog owner as if they inflicted the injury or death themselves. So in this case, manslaughter. If they claim it is one of their children’s dogs, charge both parents.

The hell? Are people not feeding their dogs or something?

And it seems none of them were by dogs if a banned breed

Bloody hell. A 3 month old baby was killed by a dog in my home town last week.
Is there just more reports on these things now or are there more killer dogs these days?

Hardly anyone in this country trains their dogs. We need to make that part of the responsibility of dog ownership. Even the more aggressive breeds can be trained in a way that makes this far, far less likely.

I’m a posty and a colleague of mine was bitten by 3 dogs really badly yesterday. The woman answered the door and just let them out and they attacked her. I’ve been bitten three times in the last year and confronted another couple of times too. All totally unavoidable. It isnt the dogs, it’s the owners negligence.

Was it a cockapoo? I’m worried for mine, as he has a habit of licking people to death with love.

We keep getting repeats of so many bad things happening but nothing is ever done about it. Around and around we keep going.

There need to be severe restrictions on dogs, based on weight. Plus complete bans on some breeds, with an amnesty initially, but police raids if not.

People these days treat their dogs like babies and don’t bother disciplining them or even training them. So many dogs have no recall even.

The problem is these dogs owners don’t see their dogs behavior as a problem. The dog that killed Jamie was a small lurcher that had never shown aggression either. We don’t euthanise pets for aggression or behaviour any more even though it is probably the safest and kindest thing to do. They won’t put a healthy dog down even if it has a bite history.
There are more people owning dogs who don’t understand dog behavior and don’t treat their dogs like dogs they treat them as babies.
Dogs aren’t meant to be babied.

“ it’s not believed to be a banned breed, its one of the other bafflingly legal Pitbull mongrels instead“
