3 day old baby was mauled and killed by the family dog, apparently the mother coughed or sneezed and the dog snapped. So sad.

There isn't any background from the video about the dog's history, if there were any signs of aggressive behaviour before.

Here is another link from huffington:

Looks like an American Staffordshire terrier mix, a big dog, pitbull mix.

How do you properly introduce your new born baby to your dog? It sounds like the family was in bed together with the new born, mom, dad and the family dog, something spooked the dog and he bit the baby's head. I honestly don't know what the dog is thinking, that this little thing is threatening?

It is very sad.
Dogs can get weird when a new baby enters the home. I saw is happen with my sister. After their baby was born the dog got really moody and started growling any time the baby would make noise, and would get really jealous when they spent time with baby. They ended up finding a new home for the dog. It was a good dog up until that point.

(It was a shepherd/husky cross)
