This is the sad reality. If owners cannot train their dogs to be safe, the dogs---not the owners---have to be put down.

And this is exactly why to report all dog attacks.

If a drunk driver ran you off the road but your car only had a scratch or two, would you let it go? What would you say when the drunk driver rammed some other car further down the road?

Reporting a dog attack is a civic duty, like reporting any other dangerous behavior. You don't do it for you, you do it to stop there being a next victim.

IMO.
