I would almost agree that a dog like a Husky, that would almost be a free range hyper pack dog would probably be a poor choice for a city dog being crated up and around kids.

You would probably know better then me but wouldn't a dog like that see a new entrance into the family as a rival for his or her social standing in the pack.

Chances are the parents were spending a lot of time with the baby, and the dog probably noticed that whenever the baby cried the parents came running.

I'm not sure if it was a motherly instinct.

But I'm no dog expert.
It might be best in a single dog home and probably in the country within a controlled environment.

Generally, I agree with the notion this isn't a dog that should be automatically euthenized, even as I understand there are definitely circumstances where that needs to happen.

But I'm not expert either.

I think the parents of the dead child should be out of the dog sledding hobby. That's an ugly business.
