Children have to be taught how to handle the dog. IF they are allowed to handle the dog at all. EVERY child is different. My older child is 5 and we have had foster dogs, including a pomeranian mom and her pups without incident. He has been taught that he cant play rough or hold her unless he is sitting. He watches out for her so not to step on her. It depends on the dog and the child. Just my opinion and my experience
