Answer 1

B: Dude, gimme some of that yummy stuff! Momma is starving me! D: No way, man!, I just saw you feeding not ten minutes ago!

B: Mano, dame un poco de eso que se ve tan rico! ¡Mamá me está matando de hambre! P: ¡Qué va, chico! ¡Si acabo de verte comiendo no hace ni diez minutos!

¡Me gusta mucho tu leyenda, Gekko! ¡No me di cuenta de que también se puede decir: 'Qué va', para significar: No way! Sé ¡Ni hablar! Y de ningun a manera - FELIZ77, Sep 18, 2017

Answer 3

Los niños salvajes siempre me han fascinado. Me sorprende que los animales salvajes criarían y cuidarían a un humano.

Feral children have always fascinated me. It amazes me that wild animals would raise and care for a human being.

With corrections:

Los niños salvajes siempre me han fascinado. Me sorprende que los animales salvajes sean capaces de criar y cuidar a un humano.

"Me sorprende que los animales salvajes criarían y cuidarían" is a very odd construction. Tenses don't agree, and it looks very weird. - Gekkosan, Sep 18, 2017

I would probably say: "me sorprende que los animales salvajes sean capaces de criar y cuidar a un humano" - Gekkosan, Sep 18, 2017

ah right, thank Gekko - billygoat, Sep 18, 2017

Como Tarzan :) Hi mate! xxx - 00376109, Sep 19, 2017

Perro:Soy más fuerte ,¡ voy a conseguierlo !

Child: No, that's mine! I'm not going to give it to you!

Dog: I'm stronger, I'll get it!

Hi Kat...Please add the English, amiga. :) - rac1, Sep 18, 2017

Thanks Rac, excuse me - porcupine7, Sep 18, 2017

"Soy mas fuerte", not "estoy". - Gekkosan, Sep 18, 2017

Porcu, I think that: No lo voy a darte would be better :) - FELIZ77, Sep 18, 2017

Gracias amigos - porcupine7, Sep 19, 2017

Answer 5

The baby is having a tug-of-war with the dog's food. El bebé está teniendo una lucha con la comida para perros.

:) - 00376109, Sep 19, 2017

Answer 6

Los perros son perros. Los bebés son bebés. Y la comida es comida. Yo nunca pondría a los tres juntos.

Dogs are dogs. Babies are babies. And food is food. I would never put the three together.

Sorry for the serious note, but darn, this just looks like seriously irresponsible parenting to me - Maybe I'm having a grumpy old man day :) - jellonz, Sep 18, 2017

I know a child who was mauled by the family dog when he was about that baby's age. The child was crawling around on the floor and the dog was guarding its bowl. You're not just being grumpy, jello. - AnnRon, Sep 18, 2017

Some dogs are prone to food guarding, and some are not. This dog is showing no signs of guarding but yes, it is potentially a very dangerous situation. However, I would bet that this dog spends all day taking good care of this kid. - Echoline, Sep 18, 2017

I think you're probably right, Echo. This dog looks like a peaceful, child-loving sort. Still, it's safer to teach children not to approach a dog when it's eating. - AnnRon, Sep 18, 2017

I love dogs, and most animals, really. I have been bitten by dogs three times: once by a set of guards dogs that got loose. Those were mean dogs, and I needed several stitches to my back. From that I learned never to run away from dogs... - Gekkosan, Sep 19, 2017

The other two bites were due to a mixture of carelessness on my part, and accident: I was bitten by sweet beloved dogs that got startled, and were terribly mortified about having bit me afterwards. - Gekkosan, Sep 19, 2017

The point being, that even when dogs are sweet and tame and loving and we trust them, I agree with Jellonz: dogs are dogs: they're built to bite hard, and accidents can happen. And if a a regrettable accident happens with a baby like that... - Gekkosan, Sep 19, 2017

..., it's the owners fault, not the dog's, not the baby's. - Gekkosan, Sep 19, 2017

I agree 100% Gekko. - jellonz, Sep 19, 2017

And I'd really like to hear your guard dog story :) - jellonz, Sep 19, 2017

Answer 7

Un día este niñito se dará cuenta de que es mucho más fácil burlar a un Beagle que a un Pastor Alemán.

One day this little boy will realize that it is much easier to trick a Beagle than a German Shepherd.

Answer 8

Algunos perros son muy pacientes con los bebes. Por suerte para el bebé, éste es.

Some dogs are very patient with babies. Lucky for the baby, this one is.

So true. This could have been a horrible disaster. Good thing this is a well-balanced dog. - Echoline, Sep 18, 2017

My thought exactly Ann. - jellonz, Sep 18, 2017

Answer 9

A veces es mejor comer solo...

Sometimes it's better to eat alone...

¡ Que paciencia tiene ese perro ! - john_burt, Sep 18, 2017

Siii!!! :) - 00376109, Sep 19, 2017

Answer 10

Nunca dejes un bebé solo con un perro.

Never leave a baby alone with a dog.

or put it face level with a dog eating! - Ranman, Sep 18, 2017

Yes, I agree Ranman ....that included! - FELIZ77, Sep 18, 2017

Good advice. - AnnRon, Sep 18, 2017

Answer 11

Con correcciones:

La bebé: "¡Oye, quiero probar un poco de esa comida!" El perro: "¡Ni hablar! ¡Esa es mi comida y nunca la comparto con nadie ....no sería bueno para mi salud! ¡Quiero decir, podría pescarme una infección"

"EsA es mi comida, y nunca LA comparto con nadie". "No sería buenO" - Gekkosan 27 mins ago

¡Muchas gracias por tus correcciones, Gekko!

The baby: "Hey, I want to try some of that food!" The dog: "No way! That is my food and I never share my food with anybody.....it would not good be good for my health! I mean, I could pick up an infection!"

Corrijan mi español si es necesario, por favor
