Our family pet of nearly 5 years just snapped at my 2 year old. Being that he is a 120lb rottie, this little snap sent my son to a plastic surgeon late last night. He was a fraction of an inch from taking his eye out.

My son (Aidan) has about a 4inch cut on the top of his head, a 3 inch deep cut on his eyelid, a 1 inch cut at the eye brow and a few scrapes and scratches (just from one swipe).

Over the years he has been very good around kids and is a terrible watch dog - not a mean bone in his body. Basically just a BIG silly puppy. But this can NEVER happen again.

I want to shoot him (and came very close to doing so last night - but I don't really have the right gun for it) but my wife just wants to give him to a family without small kids. Maybe we'll just drop him off at the shelter. I don't know.

What would you do?
