We had a dog bite to a child the other day. I don't know what this kid did, but I have been around a few black labs in my day and none of them were mean. I used to babysit small children and they had two labs. They could do anything to them and the dogs would just lay there.
This 7 year old kid was over with his parents I guess for a play date or something. The story I heard was the owner of the dog told the kid do not run up to the dog with your arms open and grab him. He said he could pet him, but not to do the other. Well, I guess the 7 year old did what he wasn't supposed to do and did it twice and the dog bit his lip/cheek combo. If that wasn't bad enough, I heard he took such a chunk out that it was very noticeable. It has to be grafted now because the dog ate the chunk he bit off. MMMM, doggie num nums.
LOL Doggie num nums. And yeah as far as I know Labs are the most gentle dogs ever! Did the dog have to be put down?
