God abeg o

How do you live with yourself as the owner of that dog knowing your son’s death was totally avoidable? What’s the point of having a vicious dog in a house with a kid?

For many like this father out there, don’t let your love for dogs jeopardize the lives of your family members. Keep big dogs away from your home especially if your kids are still little.

Aww that's so sad and sending my condolences to the family of the boy.

I sincerely suggest they take the Dog to a veterinary therapist for evaluation and given necessary treatment so incidents like this isn't repeated. So sad

Animal will always be an animal,

Naaa. The dog is to be euthanized. It has tasted human blood. It has to die.

Vete..... Wetin? Put the damn dog to eternal sleep outrightly.

This is bad

Been thinking of getting a dog, but with this, forget it.

Unless probably this harmless-looking breed...

O

Damnnn niggar

Too bad

And why is he carrying the little boy like that

Show some respect 🙏

Oh No!! Not again!!!

This is not a dog’s handwork, this crime was committed by a man which I’m sure is the boy’s father, probably for ritual purpose

Why is Nigerian men this heartless The father of the this child should be investigated thoroughly.

Nonsense men!!!

This is gross.

RIP to the child.
What could have prompt the dog to react this way?.

Don't want to sound negative,but pls if you have these pets feed them well and do a routine medical check up,or stay away from keeping them.

fuckingAyaya:
Animal will always be an animal,

End of discussion

Ekuke all the way, all these foreign breed are dangerous and waste of money

Me keep dogs I can't ooooo

Why carry the dead child like its an animal that was slaughtered.. even while keeping a carton by the side for what exactly?.. disgusting.

Ekuke will never do this. At least not a rabid one

Pathetic.

Mistakes happen in life.
Some of these mistakes may however have been avoided with careful deliberate efforts. It Is a pity this is happening.
My condolences.

Which kind Dog be that one?

Whoever owns that dog, deserve to be killed. Imagine the rubbish.

Having a higher breed of dog, like the Dobermann, Rottweiler, or a Pitbull, and you refused to feed them at the stipulated time means you are putting your life and those around you at risk.

And those 3 dogs i listed above can overpower any man, you are no match for their strength.

This is so sad. Na to kill that dog asap

One of the reasons I don't like wild dogs, most especially when getting old.Rip young soul.
