Clearly the dog attacked her because she's a ginger.

Dogs, like ever living thing, despise gingers.

Whoa, I hate to start what could turn into a horrible schismatic war... but I like ginger-headed folk. I really do... all of them... if they're a ladies.

Well, I don't like dogs, nor the concept of owning pets. But either way, I blame the existence of Nintendogs on dogs. So it's dogs to blame.

Why couldn't a dog attack someone because of the game noises? I find entirely plausible that this could happen, and also no where does it state the child was unattended, sounds like her elder sister was babysitting while mother and the other duaghter were at the nieghbours, it seems to me the dog did attack by maybe grabbing her foot and by her reaction to kick out at that she was fully attacked in the face, a terrible thing to happen but it seems Nintendogs noises instigated the whole thing. I am originally from Bolton and yes its full of scum bags looking for a quick quid in, and im the first to defend gaming over Daily Mail bollox but I think this sounds possible, my dog goes nuts over Nintendog sounds, but my dog is not in the same league as a this dog and my dog also has the knowledge that I would rip its throat out before it could even nip the kids.

@Tim_Smith how about if we dress up like ladies.. you don't like us then :(

My cat does notice when certain noises come out of the TV. but I really don't think that Nintendogs has any blame here. the real question is why this girl was playing with a virtual dog not the real thing in front of her!!

I think that there is the salient point...

Its a bit of a stretch blaming a computer game for this one.

@Spinface Phew. I wondered where that was going for a while. Guess I've seen too many "special interest" videos

I think the child in question was trying to train the dog with nothing but a stylus, which in my experience doesn't work. Look it up on your internet picture boxes if you don't believe me.
