Have you seen those new commercials where they say nothing is an accident? The one with the sou chef is especially memorable.

It's not something I encourage, but it's hard not have it pop to mind in cases like this hey?
Yeah well death to the dog won't help anything but a few snips with the scissors would save a future possible so-called accident. I say, cut right to the chase. It's not something I encourage, but it's hard not have it pop to mind in cases like this hey?

Some dogs would never take something out of the garbage while the master is around, yet left on their own, even a dog that isn't hungry can decide that there is something in there that it wants and go get it.
It doesn't mean the dogs has gone crazy, just that it's not under control and a dog must always be under control.

Hence the point is that no dog should be left unattended with a baby. There is no established pecking order concerning the baby and the dog, as far as the dog is concerned. There is no telling what a dog is thinking when given the leave to do as it pleases.
the problem is, once those conditions arise, it's not a stable dog anymore.
don't get me wrong... dogs are dogs.... people are the ones responsible (like the drug addict whose starved dogs ate her face), but I wouldn't feel sorry for it that it needs to be put down after snacking on a baby. Especially while simply guessing as to what brought it about.

All too often it seems people forget that just because we've domesticated an animal, it is still an animal, and still to a very large degree, slave to it's baser instincts - unless there is something to stop them from indulging these instincts, they will do so. It's unreasonable to expect otherwise.

The 9 Breeds of Dog That Bite the Most
According to a 27-year study of dogs in the New York City area made by Dr. Robert Oleson, of the U.S. Public Health Service, these are the 9 dogs most apt to take a nibble out of a human being. They are, in the order of their aggressiveness:
1. German shepherd
2. Chow chow
3. Poodle
4. Italian bulldog
5. Fox terrier
6. Mixed chow chow
7. Airedale
8. Pekingese
9. Mixed German shepherd
Not what I would have picked, but, who knows?
Where's the Rottie and the Pit?
And, who the hell owns an Italian Bulldog?
Ah well.........

The shepherd doesn't surprise me...but the list is interesting. Guess pit bulls don't bite they just kill. I am surprised the dobe didn't make it too.
