Our dog has bitten our son on the face, am devastated

No flaming please as it is impossible for anyone to hate me as much as me right now.

This evening our family dog (known to be a placid easy going breed, not a 'danger dog') bit our two year old on the face. We have been to hospital where
he has been treated. He will be scarred for life Sad

Our guard dropped for literally one minute, I though P had popped dog out into her 'area' and he thought I had. Tis is how we keep things safe during busy times when we. Might not be supervising both children at every moment.

Heard a scream, little man came out crying and oh my fucking god the dog has bitten hm on his cheek, leaving three wounds. Not bad enought I need sticking but they will scar, the reminder will be with him for life.

I am in such a bad way, almost collapsed when I saw him, the guilt and anxiety is overwhelming. He has been accident prone and already has a few little scars, am hating myself to such an extent now, he has to bear these scars forever, all due to our mistake. And the dog who was I being a dog either has t be. Rehomed or destroyed.

Has anyone been through this. Any kind or helpful word would. E massively apprieciated.

My ex-husband has just been awarded staying contact for our five year old daughter despite him owning a dog that has bitten eleven people and being oblivious to its aggression.
Does anyone have any contacts in the media that could be used to highlight this highly unsafe decision?
