gillyb3 Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Why is it always the dog that has to suffer?. They always tell you never left a young kid alone with a dog. If someone wakes me up from my deep sleep, after being surprise im really angry . So fed up with it being blamed at the dog. gillian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackmagic Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 I wouldn't call that an attack, I would call it a biting incident. My 2 year old nephew ran into the lounge after having his bath and somersaulted over my six month old bitch, who was sleeping on the floor. She was startled and swung round with her mouth open. Her canine tooth caught his face. At no time did my sister blame the dog. But from that day my bitch was frightened of small children and until she died at 13 years old, she shook when that nephew came into the room.

Melp Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 The DDA isn't under review. Several individuals and organisations have put forward proposals for a new act but none have been seriously considered. Poor dog and stupid people. Again.
