[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have been thinking about adopting a dog for a while now. Our main concern is that our 2 1/2 year old DD has not grown up around dogs thus far. She likes them, but we are concerned about impulsivity. For instance, if she perceives the dog trying to take a toy or get in her way, she may swipe at the dog, and the dog in turn may bite. I have seen her do this at my MIL's house with her dog. [b]Should we wait until she is older?[/b] Is there a paticular dog that might be best? We've determined that she needs a calm, probably older dog. She doesn't do well with really jumpy or loud dogs. We also need one who minimally sheds bc my husband has a slight allergy. Additionally, we live in a townhouse and both work (me part-time), so a larger dog that needs to be walked a lot is out... Ideas?[/quote] Yes, you should wait until she is older.[/quote]
