| Re: Nervous children and dogs
Hi tinkerbell - could you get a dog yourself and get your grandchildren used to a dog from puppy size?
I think scared kids (and adults) make dogs nervous around them, and the wrong dog is more likely to get aggressive in response.
My neighbours kids were scared silly of my big soft Lab, partly because of her size, but now they've a terrier themselves and are bigger they are ok.
And I'd agree with Fly Agaric's comment....
'Doesn’t it anger you all the demonising of dogs that the media have been doing of late? Its almost as if they are trying to manipulate the publics opinion using emotional black mail, so a ban can take place on some breeds.'
Should be some owners get banned, not the dogs! |
