Such a devastating thing to have happened to their first child. I have heard of it happening before but there was never a reason. My heart goes out to them both.

That is horrific that poor bub. Never trust an animal, you can never know what’s ticking them off for them to just charge like that. Condolences to the family.

Devastating news, Thinking of them all. Dogs are beautiful creatures but can not be trusted no matter what.

This I’d awful those poor parents

This is so heartbreaking

The poor couple dealing with such a loss . The dogs are a hunting breed. Too unpredictable around babies & kids.

I don’t know how this couple will deal with the loss. Very very sad.

A good reminder for us all. How brave of the family to share this story in the hope it won’t happen to anyone else.

So heartbreaking and nothing will bring them back.

I am very sad for this family, but I don’t trust dogs near children.

  No indeed. When my son was about 2 yrs old he pointed excitingly to a dog (from several meters distance). The dog came running after him and and bit him through the clothing in his tummy. My son had a fear for dogs for years. I have some fearful dog experiences myself as well

This is so devastating. I am so, so sorry for this poor family.

At the end of the day dogs are still animals, no matter how well you think you know them. They can be unpredictable and it’s always best to be cautious. I really feel for this family. I can’t imagine anything so horrible!

You should never trust an animal with your children, supervision is key. I disagree with the ‘unprovoked’ claim though. Dogs don’t attack for no reason, so something happened for the Husky to attack and kill this baby. I’m very saddened that the dog was taken to a shelter, it’ll most likely be euthanased. Very sad all round

This is sad and tragic but animals should never be trusted with children alone.

That is so sad. All dogs are capable of biting or attacking. Never ever trust them around children.

How heart breaking this is !
it shows dogs are not to be trusted around the vulnerable. Hope the dog was put down

    Of course the dog would be put down, no second chances for dogs after they’ve bitten a human, no matter what the circumstances. It’s just paedophiles, rapists, murderers etc that get second, 3rd, 4th, 5th etc etc etc chances ????

We had this happen in our suburb too. It rocked the community. So so terribly sad….

This is why you can’t have big dogs with babies! They get super jealous!! Poor darling died for no reason. I hope that dog was put down!

  Yes, such unnecessary death. Terribly sad !

My heart sand after reading this story. I don’t have pets for alot of reasons, but mainly for safety of my family.

This makes my heart hurt. A lot.
