No one knows what exactly happened.. the father was getting his haircut.. the mother let the toddler wander off.. the dog was eating.. and the hairdresser was cutting.. so on-one has a clue.. its all assumptions.........

Hey everyone... I've read all comments and appreciate both sides to the story.. May I firstly say it was a tragedy.. If I could perhaps just mention a few points that weren't through any form of the media - I work on the street and am completely unbiased as I do not know either parties but have heard the same facts from different people unrelated.. Firstly the dog was sitting away from the salon area and the clients - which is accessed by a few stairs.. Secondly the mother was in the salon area apparently watching the kids.. And lastly both the child AND the dog are innocent.. They both r just acting on instinct.. Possibly the child wandered up the stairs and may have wanted to play with the dog whilst he was eating.. And he may have just been provoked.. I do believe every party has their side of the story.. And every dog owner would understand the relationship b/w their pet and his/her food.. Fair enough that some of you'll have commented that a dog should not have been eating in the salon in the first place.. but on the other hand at the time he was not in the area of the clientele.. Maybe we should approach this with an open mind and dig a little deeper into our conscience before we make a judgement call on the life of another living creature...............
