Thank you! I have checked the website and most of adult dogs aren't good
with children or are not recommended to be with them. That's why I am
looking for a puppy now.



How old is your son?

Diddy has given excellent advice. I would only expand on it slightly to say
that IMO a person should NEVER leave a child under the age of 10-12 alone
with ANY dog. Their interaction should ALWAYS be supervised.

Thanks for your advice, but I am not worried about my 9 year old son or
my 18 year old daughter to leave them alone w/a dog. Not all kids have
bad behavior. The worse thing for us was the decision to return the
puppy back after we found out that the puppy had a bad birth deffect,
which would be very costly down the road, and to see your kids crying at
the Vet's office hurts you even more. To hear a comments from your
child like: "I hope she will never forget me" or "she will be missing
her bed tonight", etc. hurts most. I remember us waking up the first
nights and sitting just in living room thinking how attached we were,
she was our joy.
