I think it's ridiculous that some homes aren't considered because there are children in them. I understand if it's a very small dog and the children are very young, they might hurt the dog by mistake or if the dog is not good with children but if there's no problem then I think those homes should be considered. Children can be very therapuetic for dogs and vise versa and they can form great bonds. I think it's great when a child grows up with their puppy/ cat or just any animal in general. When I was little I had a talking bird that was my best friend. He mimicked words and did lots of tricks and he loved me. It was one of the best experiences of growing up. |
