Tinkerbell loves everyone and has never met a person she didn't like, but she is nervous around my 4 year old grandson. He accidently tripped over her one day when we were on a walk and she has still acts nervous around him at times. I take Tinkerbell lots of places with me so she is well socialized.

Suzi loves chldren. She always has. I was amazed one time during a walk , we went to a apt. complex accross the street where children were playing. their was a little toddler that was semi afraid of her. The little girl went to pet Suzi and Suzi rolled on her back as soon as the toddler pet her. I was there supervising of course, but was really impressed by my Suzi's behavior.
Now when she sees kids, she will start to jump on there jeans in excitement. I have never left her alone with kids just to make sure everybody is safe.

My girl loves everyone of all ages! But she usually only likes to be picked up by those she is closest to, mostly me

Roxie loves children...she loves to jump up on them and say "hi". She is a little wary of my 3-year old nieces, though. They chased her all around the house on Christmas Eve.

Linus used to LOVE kids until he spent a week with my cousin's daughter who was a little rough with him. Now he's a little more cautious. He'd never snap at a kid or anything like that, but he does tend to hide behind me or run away from kids when they come too close.

When there are kids at the park or we're around family, I have to spend some time introducing him to them and I give them lots of treats to give him and then he's great. Once he knows they're not going to hit him or drop him, he loves on them just like anyone else.

Sophie Kate does not like kids, she is afraid of them.

My niece's little girl loves her and always wants to pet her, we allow her to pet Sophie Kate as long as someone is holding her (Sophie Kate). I encourage Ava (the little girl) to give Sophie Kate treats and that is helping.
