CHILDREN, DOGS and ICE

A poor little baby Jaden Mac has been killed by two family dogs....the rationality is that babies and young children should never ever be left with any dog even for a moment. It is not the dogs fault....but of course they have been put down. I never leave my dog with my grandchildren indeed 'Merlot' goes to a puppy cage when the children are in our house...for both child and dog's safety. I introduce child and dog under strict supervision so that my dog does not develop jealous behaviour. No dog is safe... they don't have to be attack dogs.


Accidents happen but just when will people teach their children about the dangers and risks linked to ICE. The death of a 6 year old and the dealth of a teenager (bright and intelligent we are told) with 6 others on the roof of a car being used as sledge.... please!!! yes of course kids want to play, take risk, learn lessons but some lessons are learnt at great cost and to late. Of course I feel sorry for the families their loss is great and my heart is with them...but how many more times must these events happen despite the publicity.
