I can certainly understand how you feel Chico, but please don't feel guilty - you're doing the right thing by making this casual adjustment with your dog and you seem to feel confident in the new owners in making a wonderful home for your baby. I know it will take time for the emptiness to subside, but you are making the right decision. The child really has to come first - you just cannot take a chance on him being bitten and then in turn would probably make him afraid of dogs for the rest of his life. You're a good person, believe that!!!!
