NZ first are on to something with their bill for much harsher penalties for people who own dogs that attack someone, it happens far too often, and owners are far too casual about the damage a dog can do.

Also, good to see the same quotes you always hear after a dog attack. They're such sweet dogs, this hasn't happened before, they're great with the baby, etc.

I'm sick of reading the same story every other year.

You've been talking to the neighbours too much, in that case.

You have no fucking idea what you're talking about.

Dude, you don't even live here, and you're trying to tell me how things work in my own country.

Pull your head in, you arrogant twit.
