It doesn’t matter if your dog is the most gentle dog in the world , this is very irresponsible for a parent to stand their filming and laughing while putting their child in this situation climbing on the dog and if that dog chose to bite the child, the parents would be the first to blame the dog and complain about the dog when it wouldn’t be the dogs fault at all.
Indy is carelessly allowing her daughter to annoy that dog and could easily hurt the dog and if the dog was to bite it would be completely understandable. It’s not funny and it’s actually cruel in my opinion to allow your dog to be treated like this like they are a toy and allowing your kids to be aggressive with the dog pulling at him , climbing on him and not respecting him at all. Yes I know golden retrievers are one of the dogs that are known to be best suited for families because they are usually good with kids but it doesn’t matter what breed of dog you own or how good your dog usually is with kids , all it takes is one moment for the dog to get hurt or be irritated by the kids being all over him and he could bite.
Also even if your dog is so gentle and good with kids that still isn’t an excuse to allow the dog to be treated however you want with the attitude of “ he’s fine he’s used to the kids” it doesn’t matter how used to the kids a dog is they should never be treated like a toy because it’s not fair on the dog. Playing with your dog and enjoying your dog is great every dog deserves attention and love but there’s a big difference between playing with your dog compared to what Indy’s kids are doing which is not respecting the dog and putting themselves in situations were they could get bit or the dog could get injured and it would be the kids fault for annoying the dog but those kids are still so little they don’t understand because they haven’t been taught how to respect a dog so the blame is completely on Indy and Ben for not teaching those kids right from wrong to help them learn how to interact with a dog safely.
If they don’t start teaching them now those kids will never understand right from wrong and that isn’t fair on the kids that their parents aren’t responsible and can you imagine what those poor kids will be like as they get older if they’re never taught how to behave correctly now?
