Oh, how I judge.My smallest dog (the chihuahua) has nipped my son 4/5 times. And I have no plans to fire up the doggie BBQ. I expect it. She's small, he's rough, she's scared. And sometimes I'm just not supervising them closely enough. Shite_happens. If your animal nips at your kid, you need to keep them separated. Also, I fail to see how this is an opinion.
