Police in Central California say two family dogs killed a 3-day-old baby after her mother left her on the couch and walked away for a few seconds.
Fresno Police Sgt. Dan Macias tells the Fresno Bee (http://bit.ly/28ZVnQU) the girl's mother had left the door open because it was hot and she thought the dogs were tied up in the back yard.
The baby died at a hospital shortly after the attack Monday.
Macias says the two male dogs, which are believed to be a mix of shar-pei and pit bull are owned by the 33-year-old woman's brother. He surrendered the dogs to the Central California Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. SPCA spokesman Walter Salvari says the dogs will be euthanized.
Macias says police are continuing to investigate and charges have not been ruled out.

The fact that this is under investigation gives me some hope that this woman might have charges against her. I can only hope that she pays some kind of price for the irresponsibility of her newborn child.
I hate to say it but I'm now wondering if this was intentional
. comThe mix of these two breeds is very dangerous. And then there's a baby on the couch all by itself. Hard to believe isn't it. ***
Sounds to me like the mother was irresponsible by leaving a baby on an open couch in the first place - That is what Cots are for !! Or don't the young in America know they exist ? It was negligence IMO especially as she assumed rather than checked where the dogs were before leaving the child alone and unprotected by any safety means - !

If the life of the dogs,who killed that baby,is more precious,then should stay alive. If not must euthanized. Studies have shown,that once a dog has kill,is more likely for a future repeat.

Sweetheart, it has nothing to do with America. It's all about the person(s) who were negligent.

Hi Chris
Especially Sharpei and Pitbull dogs have a tendency to kill. Occasionally a Pitbull can be socialized if it is with the right handler but it's not the usual.

I don't believe any one dog breed is more dangerous than another. Growing up it was the shepherd, then it was the doberman, then the rottweiler, on and on and on. Just like the stories everything gives us cancer. So with that being said. Yes I feel the dogs need to be euthanized. And the person who allowed this to take place needs to be prosecuted. Shame something like this happened. No matter how much you preach people they seem not to hear. Same as down here with the heat you still find people leave their children and their pets in hot cars.

Political correctness enters the world of dogs. Sorry logic, sorry truth.

Of course the dogs should be put down, they will have a better death than the baby. The mother already has the maximum punishment the death of her child.
These breeds of dogs should be mercilessly exterminated, to often we hear of these kinds of incidents.

I always enjoy it when human farts decide on another being's life or death. it shows how little we have progressed from our primitive era.
It is pedantic to impose human ethics- mentality to dogs. not to mention the possibility of the human factor to this situation (dog owner, even the kid being an a**hole)
and yous don't even flinch by the graveness of 'put down'

put down you need.
Do you understand that the 3 day old baby was killed by the dogs?

Why are you calling the kid an a**hole?
I'm just tired of our species being all over everything with no repercussions. we are a bully as a species and we should fix our act. btw we have the bully inside so it comes out alright at 3 days old also. yes. i am pretty sure it is not unimaginable for a 3 day old to be an a**hole.

the same way a dog can be an a**hole too. But if you are to have a hint of decency you don't go out killing others even if they have killed themselves, because that would be animalistic, superficial, and perpetuating a circle of death defined by you rather than nature. wait, american laws on capital punishment already do that!
