She said it 'could' work but gave me a list of strict rules for the kids to follow. IMO, it would be completely taking the fun out of raising a puppy.

Anyone have a success story with young children in the home? I would rather find him a loving home now as a puppy than have something horrible happen. I'm sick to my stomach.
I have a 16 month old and he has grown up with Tilly. There never has been a problem, ever! It's not so much kids and pets mixed that's bad, it's when parents don't teach them and watch them. Tilly and Chase are best buds!
