FAQ
Cavaliers adore children. Their gentle nature and desire for constant companionship make them perfect for children. We have 3 children and each has their very own Cavalier that dotes after them like a parent. Our youngest child is almost a year old and Sonia has adopted her as her very own human pet. They all adore the baby, but Sonia thinks of her as her own. They follow her constantly and she believes that she is a Cavalier.

ARE THEY GOOD WITH CHILDREN?

Frequently Asked Questions about the Anatolian Shepherd Dog ...
Yes, the Anatolian seems to adore children, and think of them as their own "kids". A child does, of course, need to learn how to behave respectfully when around any animal, and should be supervised when with any type of dog. It is imperative not to let the child play as a "littermate" would play (inviting nipping and roughhousing), due to the large size of the breed. Any human should have a higher role in the dog's eyes than the role of being just 'another dog'.

Is naturism good for children?

Frequently Asked Questions about Nudism
Anyone who has observed children knows that they are enthusiastic naturists. We have never seen young children who are self-conscious when nude. In fact, you may observe them squeal with delight when they are allowed to run around nude. It is only in their later years that they are pressured into being self-conscious and adopt older people's phobias about the body. We believe that it is healthier for children to grow up comfortable with their own bodies.

Polski Owczarek Nizinny (PON) pages: FAQ
I have 2 children 7 + 13 and she is wonderful with them. She does love the little ones more but she tends to knock them over because she wants to lick there faces. B: Yes. Very. But they have to be exposed to them. Whatever I introduced my PON to when he was a puppy, he was comfortable with growing up. In other words, if a PON puppy does not meet children and get used to their abuse or unpredictability, he will not get along with them when he's an adult.

Welcome to CherubPugs.com
All my pugs are very good natured, and have exhibited great patience and tolerance during playtime with children of all ages. Any concern I would have would be more towards the pug than the child. Small children seem to be drawn to the pug’s bulbous eyes and may try to touch or poke them. They may also try to pick up the pug improperly. When playing with puppies, you should have your child sit on the floor level with the pup, for two reasons.

FAQ's about Toby & Terry
It's best to never let a dog alone with children. Sometimes it's also true to not leave the kid alone with the dog. Until now we didn't have a problem with children. We have a baby ourselves. Toby and Terry don't seem to have a problem with him. They know that he's a part of the family and they probably don't have the urge to do something wrong with him. Maybe later, when he's older and starts running around everywhere. We'll have to teach our kid that they are not moving teddybears.
