I don't think stiffer penalties would act as a deterrent. Certainly lots of dog owners making truck payments, mortgage, etc, couldn't afford the fine and have nothing to sue for. Post incident is too late, this is one instance where big brother gov't has to lead. Ban the fighting, guarding breeds. Enough already.
