Nintendogs Blamed for Child Mauling

[Aeladya]

I smell a lawsuit coming on...

 

[Gore]

If it was a violent dog it should be put down but if someone hits a dog and it attacks it shouldn't be put down.

Yeah, no, this dog bit a nine-year-old girl's lip off, I don't really care if she kicked it honestly the dog needed to be put down after that.

 

[powerruletheeart]

SHOCK-ING!~

Lol, blaming the video game?

The girl probably started rubbing the mastif everywhere thinking it would be the same as the video game, but obviously not~ xD

 

[spotanjo3]

People are ones who are violent and dogs are not. People that are violent should be put down!!! the dog was later destroyed ?!?! DISGUSTING!!! WHAT A MURDERER! They will be pay for their death in God's vegeance one day. They are MURDERER because they make dogs violent. Those people should be put to death!!!!!!!

 

[Orel]

Oh COME ON.
Just because some crazy dog.. You know what? Play with headphones and STFU >>

 

[ProtoKun7]

Daily Mail...I see.

The dog was later destroyed

Yes...is that a problem?


"Nintendogs Blamed for Child Mauling"
I blame the parents.

 

[Mesiskope]

ew gross I wonder what was going through that girls mind when she found out her lip was missing. she probably looked like that guy from Eternal darkness.
close enough I guess.

 

[Warrior522]

Oh COME ON.

Amen.

Well... I don't know, imo, a barking dog, is a talking chinese to me

I can't understand it.
They've got their own language, and dogs... Probably too, but simplified.
You never know what the dogs were barking for when their audio was recorded @ wherever it was recorded.

But I'm quite sure this isn't true, I have already tried if my dog would react to nintendogs.
It (SHE'S A SHE ALRIGHT! stupid English

) won't react at dogs on the tv either, and their barking is a lot more realistic

And the smallest bark she hears (yeh, no it >) makes her react, doing random stuff

Barking back, running... barking.. yeh

Uhmm, No. Dogs aren't intelligent enough to create their own language. Their Barks do mean something at times, and they have little signals like peeing on something to mark territory. But the Barks recorded most likely mean nothing. The dog could of just felt threatened, or it was just a coincidence.

Uhh no ... she kicked a dog... If i kick you what happens? hmm, your first reaction will be try and get back at me, now if i were a nine year old you wouldnt hit maybe. A dog is different its an animal it relies on instinct the second you harm an animal their instinct turns to aggression. The blame here is, first of all to the parents who were not supervising the girls when they have a rather uneducated dog as their pet and a naturally aggressive one at that.

 

[ehayes427]

i hate dogs anyway.
CATS FTW!!!!

"Sir, Sir I got a scoop!"
"Well, give it to me."
"This little girl was mauled by a dog whilst she was playing her DS game thing, it tore her lip right off!"
"Sounds terrible, but not profitable. How can we make quick headlines out of this?"
"Who should we blame?"
"If we blame the kid, no story there, she was naive. If we blame the parents, it's just another case of negligence. We can't really blame the dog, we're in no position to blame the law makers for letting them own it..."
"Blame the video game sir? Say barking sounds agitated the dog?"
"PRINT IT".

 

[SparkFenix]

Lets see

Blame the girl for being an idiot?

Or

Blame videogames and kill the dog?

MY DAUGHTER IS PERFEKT SO I PICK 2

Or maybe blame the owners of the dog for owning a dangerous animal in a home with children.
Remember, the 9 year old was at her friends house, presumably another young child.

And again, this shows the clear lack of a little something called 'common sense' in modern day society. Had the parents actually had an IQ of over 42, they wouldn't have let a nine year old kiddo ALONE with a dangerous dog, heck, they shouldn't have even had that/a dog/pet in the first place.

People like this need to be 'put down'. They do absolutely nothing beneficial to society and will never do so either, therefore they are useless and can be considered trash.

The dog, on the other hand, I pity. He only did what his instinct - and lack of training - commanded him to do. How could he have ever known the girl didn't actually want to attack him (unless the girl's IQ is below 42, too and/or she actually did intend to hurt him, because then I'd have no problems to see her get ripped apart by 100 of these dogs)? No harm may be done to animals.

This coming from someone who strongly dislikes dogs.

So you're for the euthanasia of untrained people and against the euthanasia of untrained pets?

 

[trumpet-205]

The girl's grandmother, Jean Taylor, told the paper, "I think this game should carry some kind of warning. People should be told not to play it when there are dogs in the room. I blame the game for what happened to Megan. If they hadn't been playing it I don't think the dog would have gone for her."

If they do put warning on the game, will you read it? Will you follow it?

Yeah its the owner of the dogs fault and the parents fault to leave the kid unattended with an untrained dangerous animal.

I don't think I've ever heard of a dog attacking a human and not being put down afterwards. Even if it wasn't the dog's "fault", it's still felt to be too dangerous to keep around.

 

[Forstride]

Whoever trained the dog, or in this case, didn't train it needs to be blamed.

Nintendo shouldn't have to put warnings because people should be smart enough to keep their fucking pets under control and properly train them.

I'm sure the two girls weren't playing with the dog too rough or pulling it's hair or anything, because little kids never do that.
