I can not think of a way currently to legally force people to breed better dogs. It used to be a typical family had a problem dog they buried it back of the barn.
Pitbulls that were fought had to be manageable during a fight so they could be pulled apart. What back yard breeders are turning out are often not good dogs. A fighting pit bull was seldom up to 60 lbs and usually a bit smaller. That is the first indication when a 'pitbull' is plus 60lbs is that you have something that is suspect. For myself I would not own one myself and prefer more laid back dogs with essentially a higher threshold to their on-switch and also the ability to turn if off once things are good.
I am also very careful about locking my gate and keeping it locked. when ever I unlock it i put a key chain from the lock and put it on my finger. If that is around my finger after walking away I know I must go back to that gate and check that it is locked and put the key chain back through the lock. Log out tag out sort of in function.
