Proof totally that all dogs will and can bite and attack in certain circumstances,just as Cats will too, I have heard of mnay babies faces being scratched by cats while in their prams and pushchairs.

This shows no matter the size or breed of Dog, they should not be left anywhere with Babies unattended.
My Dog has never gone for anyone,or bitten anyone but I am aware he could and would if he was frightened or felt he or I was threatened.
It is why I always when out with him, keep him on a harness and lead and never let Children stroke him,I always ask the adults to make sure their Children don't come up to him.

He actually adores Children but as kazanne and others have indicated above,prevention is better than cure, no Dog should be alone with a Baby,no matter how long it may have been a pet.
This is a very sad story with a heavy price being paid for carelessness and possibly negligence too.
