Dog owners should be educated about how to train and socialise their dogs and children and families should be taught how to interact safely with dogs. Well done to Delta Dog Safe, www.deltadogsafesa.org.au we need this to be compulsory in schools. Banning the breed is not the solution, its like saying we must ban a certain type of car because of road deaths. Its the person in control (or not in control when they should be), but then a person who hasn't registered their dog probably wouldn't take heed to keep others safe around their dog anyway. I think people may be more cautious if they are held accountable, and it may even deter people who don't try hard enough to stop their dogs from roaming too.
