So sorry to hear that, philly. I sincerely hope your daughter is OK.
We had an incident not too long ago when my two-year-old niece tried petting our oldest Boston, Duke while he was eating. Duke is generally a very calm (though nervous) dog, but he is protective of his food when it comes to other dogs. Until that point, we'd never seen him become aggressive toward a person though, even while eating. Duke nipped my niece on the hand, and actually broke the skin just a little.
My wife just found out she is pregnant with our first, so I'm going to start trying to get Duke accustomed to being messed with at all times - including when he's eating & sleeping. I sincerely hope we don't run into issues with him and the new baby. Poor Duke has been tossed around from home to home 3 different times
I'm sorry to hear that you've had to give your boston away, but I'm glad to hear that you were able to place him with your mom - hopefully it will be a stress-free transition for him
