Protect the children

The Issue

Children being attacked by dogs. I want the state to revise dog laws. Children shouldn't be attacked no matter where they are. My daughter was at her grandmother's house petting her Grandma's dog. She then turned to walk away the dog knocked her down scratched her multiple times while biting her. She is now terrified of this dog. How can I show my child that she is loved and protected when the law allows the dog to continue to stay at her grandmother's house with other small children. We have to find a way to keep that same dog from being able to attack again. Revise the laws to protect children on others properties and treat it as what it is an attack.
