[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think now that you know that your toddlers antics are too much for your dog, you need to keep them separated unless you can devote [b]100% of your attention to supervising[/b] them. And as soon as your toddler comes even close to doing something he shouldnt, separate them. But unlike other instances on dcum of dogs biting unprovoked, I don't think you need to get rid of the dog.

Your toddler is too rough with the dog.  I seriously don't understand why you've let so much go on for so long.  I know a lot of people assume that it's fine when kids do this to their own dog and then the kid tries to do this dogs they don't know.  I know you probably think it was cute, but it's just dumb.

Also, don't let him hang on him or hug him any more.  Your kid is obviously way to young to understand.  But gentle pets are fine.  I would talk to your vet too.[/quote]

I usually am not hard on people, but honestly, I had two dogs and three kids and not once did I ever have an incident where any of my kids did even one of the things your one child has done.  And I never separated the kids and dogs.  It really is possible for kids and dogs to live together without incidents.

And, I agree with the poster who noted that you need to be concerned that your dog doesn't give signals before he bites.  [/quote]
