Arrest in Ilkeston after dog bites woman and childrenThe man is taken into custody by police and four dogs are seized. Lol alert about what...Teach ur kids to leave animals alone Yet your headline fails to mention the male owner has been arrested for assault and coercive control? How about we prioritise people training their children to be better humans. There’s only three reasons a dog bites. He was taught to bite! He’s been abused at home and scared! The child (normally) and or the adult are ignorant on how to approach and interact with dogs. 99/100 the only innocent party is the dog who normally ends up being killed!
