baby playing with dog (from you tube)

Just because a dog tolerates something does it make it right? Is it ok for us to push our dogs to a point that we know they are being challenged or uncomfortable? I do not believe this is fair or acceptable. It is our responsibility as parents to be sure to set both our children and dogs up for success and safety. If we challenge the tolerance of our dogs routinely in this way we are only pushing limits. We are also not encouraging appropriate interaction between dog and baby.

I agree completely. They probably think its cute and have no regard for the animal at all.
