They are lovely friendly but they are not very intelligent.
Why was it that a dog can sense things about humans that we can't/don't?
I used to belong to a website where a lady told me that her dog would constantly bark at a neighbor guy even though she though he seemed like a nice person.
Then one day she found out that that neighbor was a child molester.
My guy and I had a mini Schnauzer who senses that my guy was ill and he'd check on him before he went to lay on his own bed.
When we'd talk about maybe going on a trip our little Schnauzer became all excited and watch our every move to make sure he didn't get left behind.
I've heard where a dog not that long ago saved it's families lives.

It seems you have misunderstood what I was telling. Dogs always look at things with dog sense not in human sense. I am not talking about one particular dog. As a whole we cannot compare their intelligence with human. they are loyal, they may obedient and authentic but they have doggy sense, not human sense. They look at anything through doggy sense. They have no idea about health issues. I don't say that they are silly or stupid. But their perception and our human perception cannot be put in the same level. Dogs are very good as pets and as securities too. But looking after a baby is a very sensitive and a responsible thing.

I've misunderstood nothing.It's obvious about the looking a baby part.
I doubt if anybody thinks their dogs would be a good baby sitter. I doubt every much that the next generation will be that way.
Besides nowadays some parents use techology as a babysitter.Some even turn their kids into lachkey kids.
ParamaSathya: this has become a fashion now. The result of this can be seen after 10/15 years. Please express your ideas on this issue. This is just for the benefaction of our next generation.
In some cases, human kids growing up with humans is far scarier than growing up with dogs around...the results of which we can see for ourselves with each passing decade.

Yes, pets are dangerous for babies. A friends of mine had to give their cats before their baby was born for medical advice. Cats can transmit infectious diseases to newborn babies, and I guess the dogs too.
And I've read cases of bitten babies by jealous dogs.

We might learn something about unconditional love,,,

2. in fact, in the one video the dog was making a screeching sound to alert the parents that the baby was fussy
3. when a child has a babysitter it means the parents aren't around
4. who do you think took the videos? there was an adult in the presence of the baby and the dog
The dogs were not babysitting the child. Baby and dog were enjoying each others company.
Yes ..i know that...why I put this thread is that I found these videos named as "dog babysitter".There are so many videos and articles about "dog babysitters". You know, human mind is really like to imitate others, and follow anything which comes as a new trend/wave without thinking much about the result. Not all but some of the people are like that. So I just wanted to find out about this and that's why I put this thread. And I am happy to see that nobody still handover their kids to the dogs to look after them as babysitters.
To a child, there must be a different between mother's warmth and the pet dogs' warmth. Always try to give your kids your warmth.
pisceslady7: I keep going back to the firt post and wondering where the idea of dogs as babyasitters comes from. I am REALLY tired and thought I had misread this.
I have NEVER in my life known a person to leave the house and go out for dinner or a movie and leave an infant at home alone with a dog.
Maybe there should have been a poll.....
Have you, or anyone you know ever left a baby alone at home with a dog to babysit?
Yes No
And see the stats...unless you have actual statistics from other references? Befuddled and bemused!
This is a strange era and some people put/throw their kids into dustbins at road sides. Some people sell their infants, some people kill their infants. This means some people have no sense at all about their own kids .Therefore one can have a reasonable doubt when this kind of (Dog babysitters) things mentioned in the internet. What should I say now ? yes ? No ?

K...I must be missing something here. There has been a connection between man and dogs since the dawn of time. They are our faithful companions and have watched over mankind for thousands of years.
Sooo whats new about that?
Unless your just using dogs as a beard to push your own agenda liiiike murdering babies or some such nonsense??

Hey everyone....I think I have cracked it~! I found these videos named as "dog babysitter".There are so many videos and articles about "dog babysitters".
He has seen cute pictures of people's babies with their dogs on the internet posted as 'dog babysitter' and hasn't realised they were just a collection of cute pics.
HE THOUGHT THEY REALLY MEANT BABYSITTERS!
ParamaSathya....people sometimes post cute photos of their kids on-line and give the collection a name. That is all it is. There are NO dog babysitters. Not every statement on the internet with photos is serious.

Yes....but lady...you know in this world all of the people are not intelligent to understand it in that way. Don't you know that there are lots of people who love to imitate others and their life styles. So this could be very dangerous for such morons who may accept this into their life style. This thread is to aware such people and that's why I made this a conversation like this. There are so many stupid people all over the world. Looking at this cute stuff they may take this seriously into their life style. I think you also have an understand about the human stupidity. And yes ...people have posted these as "dog babysitters". But there are too many videos ....and I think you have heard that Mr.Gobel's theory too. And definitely I agree with what you said in this post.
