Nope. Just was sayin'. You are still here making a fuss though. :shrug: Being as this was not posted in the 'News' area as news, but rather here for simple general conversation because another threads got me thinking about breed preferences and how people tend to lump dogs into categories of behavior based on simple breed only, I don't think it was necessary to make a fuss because it was 'old news'... :shrug:
Whatever.

As I am sure you all have noticed I love poms so this one caught me. Doesn't matter what it is dogs or any animal can be harmful. Many times what people think is cute on a small dog will not be tolerated on a larger one same with puppies and adults. I think we all agree we need people to be responsible for their pets and do the best they can by and for them. If you have a wedgie pick it! If you don't want to risk picking your wedgie in public get a thong or G-string they are meant to be up the crack of your @$$! Of course you could always go COMMANDO too.

I hope not...Poms from healthy lines can live to be 15 to 20. Of course I have a 10 yr old that is crazy like a puppy and a 8 yr old that has old man issues because of poor care before he came to live with us.

OK I know you are not thick enough to not recognize that this is not the only dog in history to ever do something like this that was of a breed people typically think of as a potential hazard.
"And with the death of this dog, from hereafter, only breeds labeled as 'mean' or 'vicious' will need to be considered potentially dangerous, because this was the only dog not labeled as a meanie to ever bite."
Seriously. OMFG people. This isn't the 'News' thread. Does it have to be a current article to bring up a topic that is essentially timeless??

Well true we don't know how old the dog was at the time.
Gee I think I'm going to be against ALL Poms now - yup that's it - oh and GSD's too - yup those are dogs that are AWFUL

why so serious
I think the most important thing in this story is that babies shouldn't be left unattended with any animal.
As to why the parents would leave their baby to go out of country, that was my first question too...I can't imagine anything being important enough for me and my spouse to leave our 6 weekold to go out of the country. Maybe a funeral or maybe they were deported or something? :shrug:

True, but the reasons are not often valid. Far too often we get those reasons from simple appearance or from urban legend.
Case in point... Cocker Spaniel. Responsible for more face bites on kids than any other breed. Yet, nobody considers them 'vicious', but rather good family dogs.
A bite in the face typically doesn't make the news, Cockers are pretty little dogs, etc. Despite the # of incidents the breed is responsible for, the average Joe would consider them better with kids than a GSD, which is bass ackwards.

I always heard that Cocker Spaniels were not great pets for kids. Just like Jack Russels :shrug:

Hate a cocker spaniel. My first bite was from one. My mom's JRT would bite a kid in a hot second yet mine was very tolerant. BF's Austrailian Shepherd nipped my youngest in the face yet my pitbull has never nipped/snapped at anyone. Dogs are individuals, I wish people would get that.

My Chihuahua went after a GS yesterday evening.

Jam out with ur clam out
very good point
but at the same time... what most dont understand is that they ALL "can" bite.... some will... some wont... but can. Some will walk away when they have had enough... others will bite... Unlike humans dogs cant say "GO AWAY"... They do this in other ways.
My rule of thumb is.... never leave a child unattended with any animal :shrug:
I have seen many animals come in with broken legs because they were left with younger kids and they hurt them on accident.

I agree. People also need to be mindful of how children in their care are interacting with pets. My nephew got bit right in front of my mom. My son got nipped a couple feet away from me. Both cases were our fault. My nephew and son were in the dogs faces. I took for granted how gentle my dog is with kids and assumed bf's dog would be as well. Luckily it was only a nip. I don't blame the dogs 9 times out of 10.

Excuse me you said "Hate a cocker spaniel.", but what happened to the part about "Dogs are individuals"?
