I would agree with people not able to own more than 2 of really any dog, the only dogs I have ever been bitten by were Jack Russells, but I wouldn't call for them to be banned because of that.

This clearly has been a truly horrific tragedy, action should be takne against the owner on my view but it likely won't as Kazanne said since the dogs were in their own house and the poor girl unfortunately went in with no owner there.
The house should have been secured to stop anyone just walking in with so many dogs in the house so to me the owner is liable and should at the very least be banned from owning dogs in the future.

As for banning the breeds,I don't agree,I have heard of all breeds of dogs causing harm to others,particularly children if they are not trained and supervised correctly.
My Staffie has never even really snarled at anyone all the time I have had him let alone bite or attack anyone, that is not to say I don't believe he could which is why I take every precaution not just to protect others but him too.

Very often it is adults and dog owners who need the training,it also seesm these dogs may have been living in less that fair conditions,if it is so that they were seemingly so hungry too.
I love Dogs, I for sure would not go into a house where there were that many and the breeds they are claimed to be, it hasn't been said if they were pedigree or cross breeds,I for sure again wouldn't enter.

This tragedy, spells out the need for owners to not only ensure their pets cannot harm others but that if they are left unattended then the premises are secure enough to prevent anyone coming into contact with them and the dogs vice versa.
Clearly that wasn't so here so for me, it is the pwner who is at fault, they are responsible for the Dogs as owners of any pets are and should be.

As I said earlier, so many Dogs in one area, once one was to attack for the pie or any other reason then the others would likely follow on and join in that too.
Really tragic and horrible thing to happen but I hope it doesn't lead to more breeds of dog being banned.

All dogs can be dangerous, it is the responsibility of owners to ensure they are not and to make sure they have control at all times,more to the point never creating any situation where someone could encounter them when they,the owner/s, are not present.
