In my anecdotal experience, the only dogs we’ve ever had issues with in public are on this list… Plus staffies.

Though with staffies making up something crazy like 40% of dog ownership in general (or 98% in Logan) I can’t see them going anywhere.

The state government released a discussion paper in June, proposing a number of changes, including:

• a community education campaign about interacting with animals
• a state-wide ban on five dog breeds: Dogo Argentino, Fila Brasileiro, Japanese Tosa, Pit Bull Terrier, and Presa Canario
• a new criminal offence for the most savage attacks, with possible jail time for irresponsible owners
• on-the-spot fines if a dog is not being “effectively controlled” in public places
