I have a almost 5 month old yorkie and a almost 3 year old daughter and one on the way. i dont see anything wrong with having children and smaller dogs. Anna was only 1.8 lbs last time we were at the vet arround a month ago. i need to get her weighed again but im sure she hasnt gained that much. Jaiden (my daughter) has rules to follow like not picking the dog up unless we tell her its ok etc. she also spends time with my sisters chihuaha buffy who is bigger then anna and learned how to behave arround buffy before i even got my anna. I know its sounds mean to say i let my daughter practice behaving with small dogs with my sisters but she did and it worked she learned to follow the rules with buffy who could take a little more rule breakking then anna since she is like 5 times annas size she needs a diet. |
