[quote=Anonymous]How old are your kids and how willing/able to take care of a dog do you think they'll be? This is such a big endeavor and kids have no idea how expensive and time consuming it is to own a dog. If they are teenagers then you could expect them to walk the dog, feed the dog, and help train the dog. But much younger than 11 and I wouldn't bank on them being able to do anything. I'd also advocate that you adopt a dog (not a puppy) that is over 1 yrs old (3 would be preferable). A puppy is like having a new baby and while they are adorable as a first dog goes I don't think you want to start there.[/quote]
