Have you seen the video that went viral this week, yet? Hero cat, saves little boy from vicious\u00a0dog<\/a>.\u00a0We all usually associate\u00a0Fido with man’s best friend and protector, but sadly, sometimes Fido’s intentions aren’t what we expected. Good thing other furry friends are willing to step up to the challenge.<\/p>\n

Our neighbors to the south in Orange County were at one point\u00a0considering an initiative to create an online \u201cDangerous Dog Registry<\/a>.\u201d \u00a0After some further research, we\u00a0quickly discovered Orange County is hardly the first jurisdiction to mull creating such a registry. \u00a0In fact, a number of counties and cities across the country, including Virginia<\/a>, Minneapolis<\/a>, and Florida<\/a>, have taken the initiative to provide people information on dangerous dogs near them.<\/p>\n

Here at Spokeo, we are constantly evaluating and integrating new data into our products to make them more valuable for our customers. \u00a0As a part of this process, we\u2019re also looking outside the bounds of \u201cpeople search\u201d to discover what others are doing to empower families and individuals through information.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, there are a number of challenges to Dangerous Dog Registries having a material impact in making people\u2019s lives safer.<\/p>\n

1) Number of Jurisdictions<\/b> — With 3,144 county-equivalent and approximately 36,000 city\/town governments in the US, there are a huge number of independently-acting bodies which would have to act to achieve full coverage. \u00a0Without a more comprehensive (state- or federal-level) initiative, the availability Dangerous Dog registries will continue to be sparse.<\/p>\n

2) Boundaries<\/b> — Government (and computers) deal very well with strict boundaries. \u00a0However, those people who are near the boundary between one or more jurisdictions would have to monitor multiple registries.<\/p>\n

3) Awareness — \u00a0<\/b>As registries are created at the local level, there is not widespread media or consumer attention drawn to the topic. \u00a0A state- or federal- level initiative would generate the media attention required to \u201cget the word out\u201d on dangerous dogs. \u00a0Similarly, a large-scale awareness program that is generally beyond the means of local government would<\/p>\n

We here at Spokeo are not trying to make a national Dangerous Dog Registry — yet. \u00a0One day we may crossover to \u201cCanine Search,\u201d but for now we\u2019re keenly focused on tackling searching for people. \u00a0We gather data from many different sources and bring them all together to answer the questions you have about those around you. \u00a0Spokeo\u2019s data is sourced from all fifty states — thousands of counties and tens of thousands of cities — and presented as one tool to uncover the information you need.<\/p>\n
