While I understand the reasoning behind the general idea of not having small kids and small dogs....I also disagree with it. I have a 4 1/2 year old and a almost 3 year old. I also have a 105 pound great dane and a 3 pound 2 ounce maltese/yorkie mix. Both dogs are great with my kids and vice versa. Obviously they are my responsibility but the kids help too.
Under the right circumstances small kids can mesh well with small dogs.
This, unfortunately, is one of the reasons I had to skip the rescue route to get my little one.
