Title: OH MY GOD A PUPPY KILLED A BABY, CAN YOU GUESS WHAT BREED THIS MONSTER WAS?
Post by: temper35 on July 29, 2008, 12:05:13 PM
The family owned two dogs.  A pug and a 6mo old black lab puppy.  They aren't sure yet which dog did the damage.

Parents left it alone.  Fucking idiots.  They should do time for negligence.  Morons.

Sad news. Just goes to show you shouldn't leave your baby alone with a dog, regardless of how nice/dosile the dog is.

If i had to guess, it would be the lab. At 6 months they arent that big, but compared to a baby, they would be real big.

Labs are great dogs (i have one) but they are crazy about food. If i give Dakota a bone or something, he goes fucking psycho if i try and take it off him. He's bitten me a few times on the hand, hurt quite a fair bit. I dunno if they are all like that, or whether he's just nuts ;D

Either way, i wouldnt let a baby/toddler/small kid near a lab eating. An accident waiting to happen.

That is called resource guarding.  The dog believes the bone is "his", not something that belonged to you which you gave to him.  You have no right to take it from him in his mind.  By biting you, he is correcting you.

It is a behavior issue, not something unique to labs  :)

Unfortunately...they don't teach 16 year old girls how not to get pregnant & then when they turn 17....how to keep the baby alive while smoking crack.
