Latest Dog Attack Highlights The Need For Review

This is a very sad story and my thoughts go out to the little girl and her family.

Full details of the incident are not known and it is unclear at this stage whether the dog had any prior history of aggression or was temperamental but in any case will do very little to dispel the view held my many that such breeds of dog are dangerous.

I personally do not believe it is necessarily the breed and I refer to my previous thoughts following the purported attack on a television star recently – http://tinyurl.com/7vl5xb9

I will not seek to vilify the dog owner but this is an area of the law that to my mind needs review.
