I know everyone is down on the over-legislation of our lives, but we're too stupid to not have some enforced control over how you acquire a dog. You should have to take some kind of personality test, and it should be required to spay/neuter the dog in it's first year of life. A large part of those dogs put down would never exist in the first place if idiots would quit breeding for fun.
