I am all for licensing people to own dogs but I think the laws need to go further. Compulsory training(preferably with the option of proving your dog is trained at say 2 years of age - I like to train my dogs myself and would prefer not to have to use other peoples methods). Compulsory desexing for all non mains registered dogs. Significant penalties for dogs that attack humans. Significant penalties for dumb arse little fluffy yapballs that terrorise other dogs. etc
