Here we go again....... We all have our opinions about Pit Bulls as this board has seen MANY times before.....but they are not all bad dogs. That is like saying all black people and people with tattoos are criminals.
What happened to that baby was a terrible thing. I wonder if the dog were a Pit Bull/Lab mix.....why they didn't say baby killed by Lab Mix?? Oh yea, b/c of the bad reputation of Pits, and they knew more people would talk about it if the Pit Bull breed were mentioned......not the other "mix" part of the dog.

A baby swinging in a swing screams prey to a dog!!!!!.....And yes small dogs kill too.....lets not forget the Pomeranian that mauled and killed a 3 month old baby left on the bed with a bottle while the adult left the room..........Terrible situation when people trust any dog that have dozens of active attached little knives in their mouth to be around kids unattended. My now 20 year old wasn't even allowed around our Rottie(now 12) alone till she was like 15 and that was only for walks or quick things.....the sooner people realize that dogs are not humans, that all dogs will bite and attack in certain situations, the safer our kids will be............DOGS ARE ANIMALS and need to be treated as such. That doesn't mean you cant spoil them and treat them with respect and make them a part of your family, but people have got to realize they are animals with the chance of a bite!

There is a reason you cannot get insurance or will pay through the nose if you have certain dog breads. The bean counters are way smarter than most. How many of you dog lovers are properly insured?

Yes, ignorance to what a Pitt Bull is capable of doing. Thanks for proving my point.

I have pitbulls and love the breed. Do your homework......the pitbull wasn't bred to be a vicious baby killer, far from it. Unfortunately, so many dogs have been inbred and some of them have aggression issues, but the majority of pitbulls are wonderful dogs. Most pitbulls have low tolerance toward other dogs, and this is why they should not be in dog parks, although they may not start a fight, they will end it, but most are great dogs. Don't get me going.......I have had pitbulls for many years, they are my breed of choice.....hands down.

I have never liked St. Bernards.....The lady that lived by the bridge growing up had oned named Bimbo that would scare the bejeezus out of me, then the movie Cujo... Up the street was 2 dobermans that would chase us and down the street was a chihuahua breeder. We stayed really close to home unless we could talk someone into drawing the dogs attention so we could get by.

U guys keep mentioning that the parent shouldn't of left the child alone with the dog. I agree. BUT attacks happen when the parent is right by the child as well. So, there is a lot more to it than just always watching your kid. The responsible adult has to actively/daily train the dog to see the child as a pack leader and to respect it as such. And then that is still no garantee.
The lady on ADC who is trying to rehome her dog because it attacked her baby was sitting on the floor right next to the baby when the dog tried to attack it. She also read up on dogs and babies, having the husband bring home clothing from the baby before the baby came home from the hospital. So the dogs could adjust to the baby scent. She was not ignorant about the issue. Her dog is an Airedale terrier. It can happen to anyone.
