No, the mom should understand what a “Beware of Dog” sign means.
The dog was on its own property. It is a working dog. It was working that day. While working something tripped over it and it went after the thing that tripped over it.
I feel for the child. The owners seem not to come across as deeply bothered by it.
I hold the child’s mom the most responsible for this mess. She has the duty and responsibility to make sure her kid is safe - yes, at all times. You err on the side of extreme caution with a very small child. Kid should not have been in there, by himself out of arms’ reach of mom, mom should not have let him in there in the first place, it’s a serious place of work where grown adults can get seriously injured or die if things go bad quickly.
The owners, if they gave permission to be there, have to be partially responsible as it was their dog. But I believe the biggest party to blame for this is the mother and her overwhelming bad judgment. She never sat down beforehand and considered the serious negatives that couldeasily happen to her child while in there.

I absolutely agree with this...I only wish this kind of logic could be used for every attack on a baby. Perhaps a little pressure on parents and dog owners could turn things around.
