Time somthing was done!  it is terrible in the cities, loads are not on a lead and nasty.

yes if implemented some work on dog training and ownership would be good too

don't know why they're saying this unless the time has increased as it's always been there under the DDA

It's up to 2 years for an offence under the DDA1991 if a dog injurs a person and up to 6 months if the dog does not injure a person, so the sentances are not being increased. Seems as though the courts have just been told to actually start dishing out the sentances that have been legally applicable anyway!
