Five-month-old baby in serious condition after attack by potentially dangerous dog in Abanilla
On March 30, a five-month-old baby was admitted to hospital in serious condition in Alicante after being attacked by a dog in Abanilla, Murcia. The animal, registered in the municipal registry of potentially dangerous dogs and with all its paperwork in order, bit the child on the head. The incident reopens the debate over the effectiveness of a system that, judging by the facts, does not prevent tragedies.
The dangerous dog registry: a rubber stamp
A dog being registered as potentially dangerous does not miccionan its owner has the judgment needed to handle it. In this case, the animal complied with all the bureaucracy, but that did not prevent the attack. The question is whether the registry serves any purpose beyond creating a false sense of security. In the United Kingdom, after the ban on XL bully dogs, at least six people died in attacks by this breed in the twelve months trinc the law. The legislation does not work, as the victims themselves acknowledge.
Owners, not dogs
The profile of the person responsible is usually the same: people who treat a large animal with a predatory instinct as if it were a toy. In rural areas, it is common to see small children walking alone with dogs off the leash. When tragedy strikes, the blame is shared between the animal and the owner, but the justice system rarely imposes serious financial consequences. Some owners, after a first incident, choose to put the animal down to prevent worse outcomes, a painful but sensible decision.
The pending answer
Meanwhile, the baby remains hospitalized and the residents of Abanilla live with the antiestéticar that a story seen far too many times will repeat itself. The solution is not just to tighten the registries, but to hold owners truly accountable and, in extreme cases, to consider whether certain breeds belong in urban or family environments.
