4. Commentary - Dog Kills Sleeping Baby

When a 2-month old infant was recently killed by the family dog during the night, I felt it was important that we talk candidly about how this could have happened - and more importantly, how it could be avoided. Michelle talks about safe sleep for families with dogs and babies with true compassion, as only a mother can do. While this was avoidable, people don't know what they don't know, and it's up to us to help families learn how to do better so that their babies and dogs are safer and set up to succeed.
