come on folks how long till the dangerous dogs ownership is really taken by the scruff of the neck and sorted out

A five-year-old girl has been killed and her grandmother seriously injured by a pit bull terrier at their family home on Merseyside. Ellie Lawrenson was found bleeding to death in the living room of the house in St Helens shortly before 0430 GMT.
Her grandmother, Jackie Simpson, 46, who is recovering in hospital, managed to lock the dog outside.
The owner, believed to be Ellie's uncle, had been warned in June about the dog's behaviour.
The pit bull terrier was destroyed by police immediately after the attack at the property in Knowles House Avenue, Eccleston.
