[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My nephew was rough with his dog at age 6 — it was distressing for everyone and my sister spent a year of her life repeating “gentle.” This was a boy who was not being abused or neglected and who had responsible parents. He was just a high-energy kid who was too young to have proper perspective. He did eventually grow out of it. The neighbors should not be leaving the boy and dog alone together, period.[/quote] Your sister should NEVER own a dog. You take responsibility for an animal. Telling a kid “gentle” for a year isn’t protecting the animal. She was NOT responsible, just lucky the dog was not reactive. If a kid routinely needs reminders, child and animal need separation. That poor dog. [/quote]
