My wife had a 1 year old male lab when we met. We added 2 additional dogs (both cane Corsos). The female came first and the lab never one was aggressive towards her. A year later we got a male puppy and the lab went after the puppy when he was eating. I tried several times to tell her he had to go. She wasn’t having it. We tried trainers and obedience school. Nothing worked. It happened with toys too. Always the male. all dogs were fixed. It came to a head when the lab attacked the male and I went to grab then he turned and bit me. I jerked back and my wife went to pull him and he turned on her and bit her in the face. An ER visit and 8 stitches later we almost got divorced over it. She still didn’t want to put the lab down. It took her friends convincing her.

TLDR: get rid of the dog. It’s a liability. And what happens if it’s someone else’s kid and you get sued.

I don't know how the thread has gotten this long but what I quoted is really all there is to it. That said, I feel compelled to add my two cents.

I almost died when I was 4. I almost died because while I was playing in the backyard at my grandparents' (my defacto parents) with my dog, it snapped and grabbed me by my neck. My MawMaw said she knew something was wrong because things got dead quiet. She found me pale and blue. I still have the scar on my neck to this day, three decades later.

Dogs are animals. Animals don't play by human rules and when it comes to little kids, they can be deadly. This is just a fact.

If it were my daughter there would be zero hesitation - the dog has to go and I don't care how. I almost died because of a bad dog, there is no way in hell I would let that happen to my kid.
