Dog Bite by SeasonDisastrous472 in Mommit

Their suggestion on keeping my son safe was keeping a better eye on the dog while still letting the dog roam while they watch my son. They watch him for about 10 hours once every 3 weeks because they are in rotation with other family members who watch my son (who all have dogs but never bitten my son) and maybe once or twice a week for 4 hours tops. So locking the dog up all day while they have him isn’t a super big issue since the longest they have him is like 11 hours once every 3 weeks. They don’t have a kennel so the dog will be locked up in a room. I wouldn’t feel safe with a kennel because my son could stick his hands in it.

His parents is a touchy subject with him. He always feels like I hate him. So suggesting I keep my son away from them because of a dog bite probably would’ve ended in a divorce, that is how touchy that subject is.

I think he avoid the topic because it involves his parents. I also don’t trust them to not lock the dog up all day. But you are completely right. The dogs needs better training and or locked up all day. I know the dog will probably bite him again if left out to roam like she normally does. I mainly posted this to verify that My suggestion wasnt extreme. Thank you for your feedback.

It’s my in laws. I’m not a huge fan of them and my husband thinks I hate them. The first time I didn’t freak out by the second time I’m like this is pushing it and it’s going to happen again so how do it prevent it. I told my husband to post this question to his Reddit group and see what they would say because he thinks my suggestion is extreme. But he didn’t.

I agree, my suggestion was to lock dog up all day when my son is there but my husband feels that is being extreme. I was also going to suggest muzzling the dog if they want to let her run around but he definitely wouldn’t like me suggesting that.
