Of course George paid the price for something that could have been prevented, and So did that child!
My statement stands, dogs are hardwired to be dogs, and have the potential to bite, they have teeth and only ignorant people will profess that their dog will never bite!
May sound harsh to some, but it is true
George was a 5 and a half year old lab who had never bitten before....Question posed is who was at fault?
George The dog, not likely
The toddler, most probably by doing something that resulted in the bite
The owners, definitely dogs and kids should never be left unsupervised, as tragic as it is, this case as with many others could have been prevented....by supervision and not not having the attitude that my dog would never bite!!!
I know of two seperate cases, one was of a 6 year old Golden retriever who bit the family's 18 month old child, the child received 30 stitches to the face and the dog received a nice one way ticket to the ground, after the vet had put the dog to sleep they found a pencil had been rammed into the dogs ear penetrating the eardrum.....
another case was of a family rottie about 4 year old, again an unproved attack on a 2 year old, kid received stitches the dog received death penalty, once the dog was dead the vet pulled out 28 staples from the dogs ear....It had withstood 27 staples to the ear but the 28th was the breaking point....
