Dogs Maul Boy, Are Owners Responsible?
I was reading about these two dogs who mauled a 4 year old boy out of no where. One of the owners of the dog said she is sending the dogs to live in a ranch because she doesn't want this to happen but she admits the dog attacked a 9 year old before. What the heck is wrong with her? Those dogs should be put down! Whether they're vicious dogs or not it's not the point! Her dog attacked before and wasn't enough for her. She should be fined and forced to pay every medical bill for this child...for LIFE!
QUOTE A four-year-old child was mauled by two hybrid dogs near his home on Tuesday night.
Little Ezekiel Renne-Cambridge was walking on the roadway with his grandmother when the barking dogs-a German shepherd and an Akita, mixed with German shepherd -suddenly attacked him.
The family lives on Crissy Street, Block 5, Palmiste.
Relatives said the dogs pounced on the child, throwing him on the roadway. His grandmother, Yoland Peters-Renne, attempted to pull the animals off her grandchild, but they were too heavy.
The incident occurred around 9 p.m.
"This was not the first time she carried the child for walk on the road. Every evening, she would walk her two grandsons, but last night, one of them fell asleep and she didn't wake him. She and Ezekiel went for the walk. They were about two houses away from home when the dogs just ran out from nowhere and pushed Ezekiel down," a relative, who did not want to be identified, said yesterday.
Eyewitnesses said the dogs, which escaped from their owner's home, did not stop biting the child until a neighbour began beating them with a piece of iron.
"The child's back and abdomen were ripped open. He was bleeding. His grandmother took him home and wrapped him in a blanket. As she was about to leave home, the child's parents arrived. They took him to the hospital," the relative said.
Ezekiel, a pupil at the Open Bible Preschool, was listed in critical condition at the San Fernando General Hospital's intensive care unit (ICU) last evening.
"He is in a bad state. We are praying that he gets through this. He underwent emergency surgery and is still in ICU. But the family wants to thank the police and the staff at the hospital for their quick response," the relative said. Source 3

I believe the owners should be held accountable but you know what? I don't think they will be because I don't know of any laws that will make them responsible. I hope the little boy makes a full recovery, I cannot imagine the pain he may be going through.

Comments: All Dogs should be muzzled, when on the streets. Signs must be clearly marked on gates of premises that have dogs. Alls dogs must be licensed if they are to be on the streets. Owners must provide some form collection when their dogs mess on the streets, parks, and walk ways. Where are our litter wardens. Great jobs you all have embarked on, keeping the public aware.
Need to update statistics on murders. E.g murders for each month for 2011 and looking for the past years.

I couldn't believe that the owner of the dogs doesn't want to put the dogs to sleep. She said she rather go to jail than to do that. Well, I am hoping the authorities are reading that because I have no problem with that at all.
