Oh this government is weak on all fronts, so they certainly won’t be the people that come up with anything that might upset animal rights groups. They’d rather those who own the animals die or their kids pay the price, as that’s got better optics.
I would like the banned breed definitions to be widened. There will be commonality between all these dogs that kill. These are dogs who’s genetic purpose was to protect, guard, look after livestock, their commonality will be strength, stamina and ability to bite hard and they are persistent and unrelenting. Hence the guard Doberman mentioned that wouldn’t kill but would chase to the end of the earth.
Those type of dogs are weapons and weapons require restrictions such as licenses and permissions to own. We all know that there’s no appetite to sort this as they’ve decided it will cost money and we’re broke. They only change anything if it makes them money or people are absolutely incensed by it (poll tax) that they take to the street and force change.
Abother working class, uneducated family being killed by their ‘weapon’ doesn’t interest people outside of their community. It’s a ‘tut, what shame’ kind of feeling and everybody moves on. If these dogs were routinely slaughtering everyone in the park that would be different. The public outcry would ensure a swift response.
