ANOTHER PREVENTABLE ATTACK

Mothers day this year marks the end of a week in which yet another child has been attacked by a dog in this case a three year old girl suffered facial injuries when she was mauled by a Japanese Akita dog in Shipley. The little girl was taken to hospital following the attack on Wednesday the dog has been destroyed and the Police are investigating.

You may think reading this blog that I am blind to the faults of all dogs I'm not.............I do agree that any dog that has attacked should be put to sleep however................how many more people are going to be attacked or killed before the Police actually charge the people responsible the dog owners. Responsible owners do not allow their dogs into a position where they could either by accident or design hurt someone.

Until the day this country finally puts some sensible laws in place tragedies such as this poor little girl will continue to be a weekly if not daily event. If these irresponsible dog owners were inflicting injuries on members of the public with a gun or a car they would be behind bars. Lets start prosecuting and giving these irresponsible dog owners a punishment that befits the deed hard prison time. These negligent owners will not start taking their responsibilities seriously until the day comes when they know without a shadow of a doubt that should they fail in their responsibilities they are going to prison.

What angers me the most about all of these dogs attacks they are all bloody preventable.
