if I may without being forward give you a little tip on small children and dogs,they are drawn together like nothing else.you wont keep them apart,except for one way.and that is if one is totally terrified of the other.that can happen if you allow the dog to bite your child,or if the child abuses the dog.do this, ,never ever let the dog bite, growl, or snap at your kids,thats really simple.but you also have to teach your child how to handle the dogs,and often thats the hard thing.dogs ,all dogs have a certain intelligence level they will reach and go no farther,the problem arises because they reach that level much faster than a child and its quite easy then for them to become the alfa.from the very first day,show your child how to handle the dogs,how to carry them,and more importantly how to play with them. they can run and play and be best of buddies,without a lot of wrestling around and things.that, while certain dogs and breeds of dogs will willingly do this without any problems,often leads to what the dog percieves as a challenge.the one thing that you can do to stop this is to make sure the dog knows its not ok to snap growl at or bite your child for ANY REASON, AND that the child knows its important not to hurt the dog for any reason.let them be part of the training. but also be prpared to punish the child if they get too rough.dogs are really amazing animals,and they are very often a integral part of a farm or ranch operation.you cannot watch the dog out of one eye,and the child out of the other 24 hours a day.train them both equally.they can either become best freinds ,and you can trust the dog to watch out for your child and vice versa,or they can become ,and very often do ,worst enimies.neither one is a given, it takes a lot of time to make a really good dog,it takes alot of time to make a really good child.if you dont have that time to spend,try to find another place for the dogs now.dont wait until you throw your hands up in dispair.i see far too many dumped along side the road somewhere that folks dont have time for.( BOTH dogs and children so to speak, but thats another rant LOL)
