I have a four and five year old, but they have been around small dogs all of their lives and are pretty calm kids. I can understand why breeders are reluctant to sell to
some families with small children, I keep Sandy away from almost all of my kids' friends. Some kids just don't know how to treat animals (of any kind) - let alone a tiny dog. With that being said, there
are kids out there who are okay around small dogs. Mine aren't ever allowed to pick Sandy up, and Sandy is always with me, so they are contantly supervised. They've never been alone with any dog, but that's me - I'd rather be safe than sorry, even though I do trust both my children and Sandy. My mom has a Lhaso Apso, my brother has Pomeranians and my sister has Westies, and my children have never had any problems with any of them.
