Starting with the scripture:
Exodus 21
28 If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
29 But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
So the scripture is talking about Ox because livestock was the main animals kept by the general population at the time of Moses.
We clearly see if an Ox is known to be dangerous and then goes on to kill a person the owner is put to death for negligence and ultimately responsible for the life of another human ended.
As Jews in Moses' day found dogs unclean animals and would never have them as pets it's hard to tell what punishment would come of a dog owner who's Dog went on to kill someone as it was simply not allowed or desirable to own a dog.
I think so many dog attacks are happening because the heathen justice system is handling the outcome of dog attacks and not Gods will for this matter. I think if a dog goes on to kill someone the owner should be put to death for loss of innocent life,they are the dog owner after all. Just like if a dangerous Ox kills someone.
Dogs historically are just ''domesticated'' wolves,wild animals. You can't ever fully tame wild animals so it's not a reasonable defence to assume dogs are ever fully safe around the population so you have on your hands a potential dangerous animal before any human influence. We do know these dogs are dangerous because it keeps happening over and over again so I think pet ownership should not be banned but if your pet kills an innocent person-that's your death warrant. People seriously need to take responsibility for these dogs.
I know people are very emotional about their pets but for me human safety and Gods word comes first.
