  Show dog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Show dogs are supposed to be breeding stock and therefore are entire individuals.
Show dogs have a registered name, that is, the name under which they are registered as a purebred with the appropriate kennel club, and a call name, which is how their owners talk to them.
By contrast, dogs in the breed registry of a working dog club must usually have simple, no-nonsense monikers deemed to be “working dog names” such as “Pal”, “Blackie” or “Ginger”.

 Fault (dog) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A particularly troubling instance is one where the breed standard states that the fault is to be penalized to the degree of the severity of the fault; conformation points which are open to human interpretation cause much ill-will at conformation shows.
Dogs with a level bite, an under-bite or an overbite are said to have a ‘fault’.
This sometimes holds true for show dogs whose breed comes from working lines; the Australian Cattle Dog is an example of this as are some terriers, where the breed standards specifically state that scars are not to be penalized on the conformation bench.

 Parents-owners always at fault
The parents and the dog's owner may both be returned to reality with the screams of a bitten child, followed by the undeserved destruction of the dog.
Many are quite happy to leave children playing with a dog (it relieves them of taking control of their child's behaviour), even when they know nothing about dog behaviour, do not own a dog, and have no idea what a dog's reaction is to teasing.
Dogs are feeling, reasoning creatures, not toys - we would not expect another child to just sit and let itself be hurt, teased, stood on, have its hair pulled and do nothing about it.

It's not abnormal for a dog to dig several different pits around the yard - he'll want to be able to lay in the shade, so as the sun moves, he'll move to a different spot.
If your dog is left alone for long periods of time, he may be digging because he has nothing else to do, or he may suffer from separation anxiety.

It is not like there is any documented evidence that shows that these attacks has happened in the past with the dogs and it is not as if she purposely left her son home in a dangerous situation knowing that her son could die by a dog attack.

 cujo is fat and it's my fault - Chazhound Dog Forum
the best way to help a dog lose weight is to decrease overall caloric intake (i'll get back to that in a moment), and to increase exercise if at all posible.
don't laugh, but many people think along the lines of "my dog weighs X pounds and the bag says to feed Y cups at his weight but he's still fat" when they should be basing the daily feeding amount on what the dog would weigh at a normal, healthy weight.
protein and fat are the more expensive ingredients in dog food, while carbs (read: mostly grains) are cheap and increase the profit margin on every single bag sold, since lite food generally costs the same and sometimes even more than the regular adult food.
