My moms dog bit my son: Am I wrong for thinking they should do something about it?

i believe the people who put the stitiches in will turn it in to the heath department or animal contorl

Maybe the child in some way hurt the dog. At first you didn’t see to that part

Stay home. Do not take the child there under any circumstance.

they need to put dog in shut room for length of your visit…or don’t go…
wouldn’t make them get rid of dog, but kids safety trumps being around dog

If your mom has a dog crate put the dog in it while you visit. I had a little dog that was a little aggressive so I put it in his crate while visitors came over.

Very justified to cut ties, considering they’re choosing the dog over the safety and well-being of their grandson

Have your parents put the dog in a safe place. If they won’t, I would have to consider another way for them to see your child. Mc Donald’s or your house.

Stay at home. How old is your son? Kids love to pick at dogs.

Put the dog in a room away from son

For your son right now, he doesn’t need this now. Maybe if and when he is older

If the dog isn’t put up or gone when we come then we don’t come! If this isn’t the first time is push for removal of dog

Just put the dog up when the kid goes over. Its very simple…or have the gp come to your house

The dog needs to be kenneled when children are around

They can kennel the dog when you visit. If they won’t, don’t take children to visit.

If l were the owner the dog would be put down

When our dog bit two people in 6 days, he was over the rainbow bridge ASAP

They need to visit your children at your home or lock the dog up when you are there.

put the dog in another room when your there with the kids if they are keeping the dog

I was told if they draw blood you should call it in to animal control.

Yep just separate them

We could have brought the dog because the other dog was inside the house the whole time

Put the dog in another room or crate for petes sake

Train that dog before anyone gets hurt or worse!

Fyi: if you bring your children to that home again and your son is attacked you will be investigated by CPS. If that happens again its child abuse for putting your child in a dangerous situation.

That dog would be put to sleep instantly.

Same thing happened at my mil and I said from now on you can visit at my house sinc its unsafe fo my children. Shes never com by

Hi I do agree with Wendy and you must realize that it’s their house. So you have two choices either don’t return or have them visit you more often

Get a new dog.
If a dog is biting my grands… their on their way to a shelter or doggie dirt.
Granny don’t play that​:latin_cross::sunglasses:

Say I want be back unless the dog is put up while we are there

I would ask to put the dog in another room were it cant get your son.

Introducing my azz, no I would tell your parents that they care about that dog more than they do your child and I would not go back there until they put the dog down or got rid of it. HELL NO, why would they want to traumatize that child anymore.

Have your parents come to visit your child at YOUR house, without their dog. Then you don’t have to worry about your child’s safety.

if your mom has not done NEthing about the dog…then u have 2 ask yourself…who/what is more important…the dog or your child’s safety…simple as that

Tell them that you want the dog to be locked in another room or you will visit again

The dog needs to be kenneled while your son is there

You could do more harm to the child by making him see the dog again

Safety and comfort of you child ALWAYS comes first. Just keep that in mind…

Make your parents come to your house to see the kids. Easy fix and it puts the ball in their court.

Put the dog “up” when n the child goes to visit.

They can’t control the dog and be sure it won’t happen again! Scary!! And for the child.

Kid comes first, dog needs to be be put up when you come over or don’t go.

Well. You knew the dog was aggressive. Your fault for not keeping your son safe!

Just have them come to visit your house minus the dog of course. See? Problem solved. stop making it into a federal case

If they hit your car in the driveway would they expect their car insurance pay for it…a dog biting a child worst

They should put the dog in a cage when y’all are going over

I don’t blame your son for how he feels. Ask your mother to put him in another room when you visit.

Would want dog kept separate from us when we visit or would want it muzzled.

I wouldn’t go back with the dog there.

I wouldn’t go to their home. Your priority is to protect your child

If they keep the dog then when your visit the dog should be kenneled. If they don’t then let them know you won’t be able to come over .

Ask your parents to come to your house where your son is safe.

Ask them to put the dog up in another room while y’all are over there.

Let them visit you… leave the dog at home… don’t go there they can come to you

Train the dog or crate him when your son will be there.

Make your parents but the dog in another room if they want you see you and their grandchild

I would stop going, sorry however the next time it could be worse

Dog needs to be crated while your son is there, or put inclosed room.

If they have a yard maybe the dog can go in yard til you leave so as to avoid another bite

Crate the dog when around children. No excuses.

Your son should not be exposed to the dog .

I wouldnt trust it with a barge pole .once it has had a taste of blood may be not so lucky next time.tell your mum choice is easy .

You have a choice,
You can keep going to your mom’s and keep putting your child at risk.
Or
You can report the bite to the proper authorities.
Choice is yours

If ANY dog bites MY son in the face , its going to sleep, VERY unacceptable

Nope, I’d have broke the dogs neck myself as soon as it bit my baby.

How about a nice bedroom with a closed door. Dog doesn’t visit your home and nothing wrong with air condition bedroom.

I wouldn’t go back till dog problem was fixed weather that meant classes or crateing while there

A dog that bites a child should be put down period

My granddaughter had the same situation with her other grandmother. They put the dog downstairs in the basement until she left.

If the dog has had previous issues with aggression then why let your child around them in the first place?

If they don’t put the dog up then don’t go there.

I would advise the them need to put the dog in a different room while you are there

Dogs never rank higher than humans, in our state, biters are put down.

Have your mom come to your house! Don’t bring your kid around a dog who bites!

Put the dog down.your child should come first

No, you are not wrong! Your child comes first and it should be reported. I would never take my child there again, but then I would have reported it.

If they won’t lock the dog up while you are there, don’t go!

Ask that the dog put put in a kennel or bedroom during the visit.

did your son do something to do to the dog that is the only way he would bite your child

Child comes first! Period! End of conversation!

Keep the dog in cage while the children are around

They should put a muzzle on it when kids are around before it bites again .

compromise…when you visit they put the dog away for a short time so you and your son feel safe. if they can’t compromise, i would stop going there

They could put him in a cage while you are there.

Have dog in crate or eles where when u visit or u wont come over. Dog bits child not good

Why don’t they put the dog up while you guys visit…But no I wouldn’t give my dog up either

me i would shoot the dog if it bit my kids

They can keep dog. But dog should not be allowed around ur son when bes there.

You know the dog is aggressive but you take your kids there 2-3 times a week. It isn’t mom, it is you. Neither of you are putting the kids first.

Keep the dog put up when kids go over

I hope you put in a claim with their home insurance…

Any possibility they would consider crating the dog while you visit? It’s not inhumane at all. Just separate dog from child and don’t bother trying to get the dog to accept the child.

You sure your kid didn’t do something to the dog? Bend his tail or something LOL

Ask them to put the dog up when you visit

Call the animal control center.Wont have to worry about the mongrel anymore!!

if they wanna see their grandkids then have them
come to ur house. don’t force ur son to go there .

Ask them to keep the dig separated from your child.

What a stupid question. Protect your child in either making sure the dog doesn’t have access to him at their house period! Or don’t go there. Is it really that hard to think for yourself?

Put the dog in a separate room while you’re there

Have them but fog in other room while any child is there

You should be able to figure this one out on your own !!!

Or they should at least pin him up when you go there
