Is this how the dog got loose?

Clifford. If you don't have grandchildren, don't ask.

If it happened to our kids, they'd be down in the mud wrestling with this puppy. I'm glad the parents aren't taking it hard--though as we all know it would take just one spoilsport to bring in the trial lawyers and drop a nuclear bomb on the school.

The youth of America are soooo weak...

Gee Clinton "the Big Dog" is attacking children now....hath he no shame????

"We had a couple of students who were pretty distraught - pretty shaken up," the principal said. "Counselors visited with them, and they seem to be doing fine.

"Twenty-six children are nursing scratches, bruises and other minor wounds"

Hmmm...this used to be the results from normal childhood play.

Kind of pathetic that these kids aren't able to scrap with a friendly dog.

Dear God, whatever happened to "walk it off?" We're rearing a woosified generation...

I agree...we have a male lab mix (about 60 lbs) and a female purebred black lab (about 70 lbs, and still growing at 9.5 months). Our 4.5 year old daughter isn't happy if she doesn't 'puppy wrestle' at least 2-3 times a day. She gets knocked down, she gets back up and starts up again. Why in the h*** do the kids need a counselor for something like this? I bet my 3 month old son (14 lbs. and 2 feet long) could take these kids on and it would scare the living daylights out of them...jeeze.

The scratches are probably from the dog's dew claws when he rassled with them. The dog should be brought back to the school and introduced to the kids.

We are sooooo in trouble when the ChiComs attack. At that point, our technology will counteract their numerical superiority, and it will come down to who has more intestinal fortitude.

Good. That means my homeschooled, Civil Air Patrol member son will be able to run all over them.

I've made raising alpha males my life's work.

Child abuse! Child abuse!

This was truly shocking--that young elementary school students were allowed to play a brutal game of "football" at lunch. The NEA needs to look into this right away.

"We had a total of 26 students who had some type of bruise or mark, scratch, pressure indentation or puncture wound of some type," Foss said. "Of those 26 we had 10 we identified with wounds that broke the skin, scratches and so forth."

Hell's donkeys! I used to get worse rassling my cousins.

What kind of place is raising such wimp children? What would these little Fauntleroys do if they got a serious cut, faint?

Forget sending the Marine Recruiters to that town, there are no fit candidates for recruitment.

This is day one, I'll bet my last dollar by next week there is a gazillion dollar lawsuit and the school, school board et al will be named in it.
