A 2 month-old left alone in a swing was killed by a labrador puppy in Oklahoma. The child's mother and grandmother were home at the time of the baby's death but had left him alone in a room with the puppy and another dog.
Police aren't sure what made the puppy attack the 2-month-old boy. They say that the dog mauled the infant and he was pronounced dead when paramedics arrived to the scene. The black lab puppy will be destroyed for its aggressive behavior.
This is not the first time a puppy has killed a 2-6 month-old child. Experts suggest that you not let dogs (or puppies) sleep in the same room as children because they can become violent. Having a dog spayed or neutered can help lower levels of aggression.

They aren't sure what triggered the attack?? How about the fact that a Lab is a hunting dog with strong prey drive (What makes a dog play fetch? The prey drive!) and the baby was IN A SWING. Hello? MOVING TARGET!! An infant should NEVER be left unsupervised with a dog - ever - of any age or breed. Unbelievable.
