These tragic events occur frequently. Anyone contemplating getting a dog when they have small children in the home, should get a puppy and allow it to grow up with the children. Getting an adult dog from a shelter, for example, could be very dangerous to a small child. And, anyone who has a mean dog should be held liable if it attacks someone.
