That is a very touching video.

I know that my opinions might stir a few negative responses, but I have to say that while I support the fact that the owners are most probably to blame, it's the dogs that attack and how can you ever police the idea of these dog's only going to sensible owners. They are a fighting dog and one that no man could restrain if it decides that it wants to attack. I know it's a far bigger picture and there is alot more to it than that.

Imagine if I wanted to keep a Crocodile as a pet and walk it down the street. There is no way that would be accepted, but it is still a living animal that has as much right to live as any other animal, but it is a killing machine that knows no limits to what it kills.

Don't get me wrong, the last thing I would like to see is these dogs killed, but a way to slow down the breeding of them would be welcome in my opinion. Of course some kind of strict license would be an idea, but people always have ways around it and it only takes one of these dogs in the wrong hands and you could have an infant casualty.
