I've offered options. They're not a magic bullet. I can't help that people aren't willing to read those options.
Does something need to be done about dogs?

Nah you were just enjoying mugging people off, not difficult to see.
How is telling someone to use the forum tools available, mugging them off? It's amazing but once he was spoon fed sidimmu managed to find the posts that he couldn't find prior to that...
Rare event?
English hospital episode data analysis (1998–2018) reveal that the rise in dog bite hospital admissions is driven by adult cases - Scientific Reports
Dog bites are a global health issue that can lead to severe health outcomes. This study aims to describe the incidence and sociodemographics of patients admitted to English National Health Service (NHS) hospitals for dog bites (1998–2018), and to estimate their annual direct health care costs...www.nature.com
A recent United Kingdom (UK) population-based survey estimated that 25% of individuals have been bitten in their lifetime16. A third of those bites required medical treatment,
That's not a rare event!
Another interesting stat:

Norton dog attack: Girl, 5, badly hurt outside shop
Farrah-Leigh Nichol was bitten on the face during a shopping trip with her father to buy some bread.www.bbc.co.uk
"She was crying and all her face was off."
Emotionally charged link and run? It's not even true as the quote isn't remotely accurate to the image... Her WHOLE face was off?
You seem exceptionally emotional about this topic which is clearly affecting what and the manner in which you post.

Is that not how most such provocative threads in GD end up going, though?Another interesting stat:

Usually it starts within a couple of pages.

Another one. I absolutely love dogs and detest the thought of banning breeds, but I feel it might be time to seriously thinking about banning the XL Bully. Just too many attacks now.
Doncaster dog attack leaves woman seriously injured

Search function is really bad I find. I've searched for (ironically, the dogs thread) using "by title" and it seems to completely fail
I'm of same mindset on both.Another one. I absolutely love dogs and detest the thought of banning breeds, but I feel it might be time to seriously thinking about banning the XL Bully. Just too many attacks now.

Even if they are really good dogs.. If things go wrong, even through no fault of owner, (though it usually is).. Not much anyone can do about it
Would be great to be able to view the stats with "scummy owner" adjusted to see what proportion of attacks are down to this

I do feel the same but I just worry it'll drive the breeders underground.Another one. I absolutely love dogs and detest the thought of banning breeds, but I feel it might be time to seriously thinking about banning the XL Bully. Just too many attacks now.

So they will come up with something else to get around the ban which is how I think these bully ones came about
Dont worry buddy I'll help, lucky enough the person you are quoting is the OP, so top right, next to watch, the 3 dots, you can select thread starters posts.
As for others, struggling to figure that out, large page and CTRL + F seems to do the job at the moment.

Nothing wrong with the rest of the content 
Bognor Regis dog attack: Man in 70s seriously injured
The dogs, believed to be Rottweilers, have been shot dead by Sussex Police firearms officers.
www.bbc.co.uk
Another person hospitalised, rottweilers this time rather than the favourite dog of peace. Dogs had to be shot by police.
Sounds like it was quite bad, not just for the victim but the witnesses too, from ITV:
"He was laying on the floor, screaming screaming. You... you can't describe the screaming," she said.
"The ambulance came and this poor man... it was absolutely horrendous. Horrendous."
