Teach your children to stay away from the dog. Your children don’t live there.
What kind if dog do your parents have?
Some dogs see eye contact as a threat. Little kids are always eye contact level. The fog should not be around small children. It’s obvious he’s uncomfortable about it and it will happen again. .
All I can say is if my dog bit one of my grandkids without provocation it’d be GONE
You knew the dog was aggressive. You said it wasn’t th first time and yet you’d till allowed your kid close enough for the dog to bite. Your fault!
Right Charlou…put dog up until they leave…one of mine bit. My grandbaby but he had food and was acting like giving them taking away…I spanked dog but I got grandbaby too in telling him don’t eat from table…
Dog in other room/ door locked when you visit and parents come to your home more often( leaving dog home).
They can come to your house to see their grandchild. After he has healed a bit it would be appropriate to try a reintroduction.
Hold back on the visits. Your son is more important.
Dog at fault?
Child at fault?
Need more details before opinion.
Is dog aggressive or the child aggressive towards the dog? Tail pulling etc?
My grandma had a horrible dog. I
Wouod make her put the dog in the other room when i brought my daughter over for a visit.
Nope, would not go their again unless they put the dog outside.
I wouldn’t take my kid back. Have them visit you at your house.

Never would I put the dog before my grandkids the dog should be put up while the kids were there no way would the be allowed to bring the dog in my kids presence EVER
Maybe your mom can visit you and leave the dog at home, or kennell the dog when your son comes to visit.
When he had medical care, they should have notified county. It is there job to take over this situation.
Sounds like the dog is afraid of the child for some reason.
My dog bit my granddaughter after being around her all the time and i had her put down. So no you are not wrong
The Dr. that took care the boy should have called it in as a dog bite & authorities would take from there. Unless the people lied about it
Your son may have done something at one time to the dog and dogs dont forget.put the dog away while you visit or dont visit anymore.that simple
Ask the owner. I brought a cage. Do you want to put the dog or your grandson in the cage
Some dogs don’t do well with small kids who are face level- keep kid away from dog
Well to me its a dum question to ask.you put your child first you don’t go over there. If they want to see your son they can come to your house without the dog.you could also go to the police to have the dog put down since its n o t his first time
If he’s scared of the dog he should not be forced. .if the insist on keeping the dog but want you to come around then the dog should be.put away while you are
Put dog in a room with a door for awhile he needs more work on his training
Have the grandparents come visit you instead of going over there I wouldn’t want to take my child or grandchildren around a dog after it bit them
Sadly this dog will bite again he needs to be muzzled or trained by professionals
You are NOT WRONG. The dog can bite your son or someone else again.
Wow the family’s safety comes first.
They either need to put the dog up if you guys go over to visit or they come to your home without the dog. If they don’t have the decency to do that then it’s on them, not you.
My cat bit my sister pretty bad on her leg. From then on I would put my cat in another room and close the door, when she visited.
Had a rule on the ranch, if any of the dogs were aggressive and bit a child they were destroyed
It will only traumatize your son again if the dog is re-introduced to him.
Nope, you are right. Dog would stay in another closed room or they would come to you. My Grandmas dog didnt like kids.
They won’t let the dog go… please ask them to put him in a crate or another room when you visit
Have them put the dog up when you are there. If they refuse, then cut ties with them.
Do not take your child to visit as long as the dog isn’t put up properly. Simple as that.
Don’t go over there anymore unless they agree to put the dog up every time you visit
I wouldn’t go over there anymore period. If they want to see your son they can come visit where it’s safe.
You never know what a child can do by accident. My sisters dog will go after your face if you blow!! Other whys she is a lover kids adult everyone.
My parents dod has done the same multiple times. Keep him away from the kids.
Nope, km eep the child away. And you should stay away from your mom. Sounds li m.j e the dog is not child friendly. Some dogs are like that. Heck, we used to have t keep our dog in the house when the kids came over. She was not used to kids, and made her jumpy. But thaf was how we solved our problem.
Cut ties. There is a no way you can reintroduce your boy to that dog
Your child may never forget that. There are ways to spend time with them without that dog.
If it were my dog I would crate them in another room away from ppl n kids as i di not want them to get close to ppl im not saying I want my dog to be aggressive but that way there won’t be any kind of confrontation
I love dogs but I would unfortunately get rid of it. If it’s bitten before - they’ll bite again. Your son shouldn’t have yo be afraid
don’t go to their house any longer ir lock up the damn dog if you do go that would be the freakin day I would take a dog over my child
Ask them to put the dog in another room while you all are visiting. That’s not too much to ask.
I have always had dogs and always put them in another room or crate.
If he had stitches an automatic police report should have been made. They should also follow up. Shots up to date??
Put dog up when your kids are there, that is what we do as she is old and the kids aggravate her.No problem
Bedroom wouldn’t be secure enough for me. Crate with strong latch would work.
I could be wrong but I was under the impression dogs can be put down for biting .
I’m a grand & great grand I have 2 dogs 2 cats if one of them ever bit one of my baby it would die rite then & there
You are wrong about the dog…Why dont you have your parents to your house where there is no dog? No, you shouldnt reintroduce the child to the dog…he is 4…
they should put the dog in another room when you and your son are there visiting!!!
Your child’s safety and mental health is/should be your top priority. Either the dog. oes or you don’t go back to the house he lives in. If your family wants to see you or your child. They should seek you out or get rid of the dog.
Don’t take the child to your moms house. It’s her dog she isn’t gonna get rid of it and it’s your child-keep him safe
Simple have her, put the dog in another room while your visiting. If she wants to keep her dog its that simple Common Sense!!
I think the dog should be kept away from the child. In another room or somewhere
Your responsibility is to protect your child , the next time the Authority is probably going to step in you can either get your child taken away or grandparents put killer away .
Have your parents come to your house to see your son. Just say he is absolutely terrified to come to your house
Your kid. You have to do what you as a parent thinks is right to protect your child.
Stand your ground don’t let your son near him sad your parents don’t respect your concerns or their grandsons safety
That dog needs to be put down. I can not believe you put your child in danger. What is wrong with your parents?
separation. maybe it doesnt like kids. some dogs dont.
Please don’t subject ur child to an aggressive dog…u already know the dog bites…
Arrange for the grandparents to see him at an alternate place without the dog.
Your son comes first. Explain to your mom why you won’t visit unless they put the dog in another room. If the dog bit once, chances he will do it again.
See if they are willing to put the dog up when you visit. If not I would only make phone visits.
Have the grandparents come to your house but without the dog!
Sadly the dog should be put down. Once they do that, they have taste for blood and probly will bite again… It’s not safe being at your mom’s when she still has the dog. It’ll be a danger hazard and safty hazard for the little one…
Keep the child away from the dog. When you’re at your parents home remind you child he will bite and stay away .
Dog had to have been reported if the child had stitches he would have to be Quarantined and shots proven
Why would anyone want to own a dog that bites
Why are you allowing your child around a dog you don’t trust? The dog was in its own home, right?
Grandparents need to choose dog or grandchild
Stay away from the dog if u know it bites. You were in her house.
You should keep a better eye on your child. Dogs don’t bite for no reason.

If you keep your son away from this dog he will develop a fear of all dogs, and he will also think that mommy will take care of any problem in his future. You will raise a wussy wanker.
The dog owners should pay for any medical expenses.
BOTH dog and kid parents should keep the dog and kid in the same room but not close to each other. Both the dog and kid need to learn to respect each other but keep certain distances to prevent biting / being bitten.
The adults need to take control and show the dog (and kid) they are the pack leaders and teach both dog and kid what is and isn’t acceptable behaviour.
Both the dog parents and the kid parents are responsible.

If you decide you wanna visit your mom let her know that the dog has to be caged while you and your son visit or you will not come. If she wants to see you she will comply or visit you at your house.
Definitely crate dog or separate into another room
The dog would not be allowed near my child/children ever again
Have your parents put the dog in a cage while visiting them .
You need to keep the kid away from the dog, it’s his house.
Maybe dog was hit or kicked by your child when u werent looking. Whichever, just tell mom to put dog in bedroom when u come over. Don t make waves
The Dog should always be locked u when you go over there.
you need to keep your son away the dog will bite again
They shouldn’t have to get rid of their dog but they should have to crate it while you visit
This happen to me too but my daughter was 1.
Absolutely. Wouldn’t take my child near that dog.
Maybe they can just keep it shut in another room while your son is there?

My niece has a cat, I’m very allergic to cat’s! She always put’s her cat in a room. Problem solved. What’s the matter with her grandmother?
I would file charges…if the dog bit this child it will bite someone else!
Put the dog in another room or kennel while you are visiting.
Dog is somewhere else when you and children visit. No leeway with that one.
Keep the child and dog separated don’t cut ties just keep them apart.
Time to tell grandparents the truth if he bites another child they could be sued n the dog will be put down once a biter usually always a biter
Not siding with the dog, just asking,was your son antagonizing the dog or was it an unprovoked attack?
If it was unprovoked I would insist they get rid of the dog.
My mom puts her mean little Chihuahua away. Always has
They wouldn’t be seeing my child no more until they got rid of the dog. Period
I think it is ok to ask them to put them up while your there. I do my two dogs they don’t bit but will jump up on a person and have scratched them.
