But perhaps you're right. My fierce beagle might one day bite little Jonny for tuggin on his ears to hard, or pulling his tail. Better just give him up now just to be sure. #### i remember doing that to my mut growing up and I got a nip or two. Guess what, i deserved it... and it didn't kill me like many in this thread are suggesting is so common.

Dogs can be dangerous. That's indisputable. Babies are defenseless. That's indisputable.
If you want to minimize the risk to your baby, turf your dog. I can't break it down to a more basic level than that. If you want to accept that risk on behalf of your defenseless baby, fine. But to pretend there is no risk is goofy.
