Sounds like you have not been training the dog? Have you been taking him to any classes or training him on your own? And getting him used to unfamiliar people. Dogs require more attention than some humans at times. Sounds like your dog doesn’t know the pecking order like at all you need to get the dog in a class with your daughter there to train her how to handle the dog with her being alpha. Or just cross your fingers and hope he grows out of it

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.

I know it sucks, but protect your little girl and cut bait on the dog.

Our dog's hips held up (the OFA certification has helped the gene pool tremendously), but he did get back problems the last 6 months to a year that held him back. Ole boy saw 14 Summers. I probably waited a couple of weeks too long, but I just hadn't paid attention to how bad it was getting. He still had bright eyes and a big smile to the end.

There's more to this story than you're telling.

Have to admit the lab surprises me. We keep them inside but they are duck dogs, never had a problem.
When my second daughter, now a Jr. in HS was a toddler, she fell on our chow mix dog that was about 7. Her turned and nipped at her. Barely missed her face. He was a nipper anyway. The next day I buried him.
