[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: yes, a big dog running down the stairs with a toddler the toddler needs to get out of the way or can get knocked down. then again, a big dog the kids can climb all over him etc. without as much risk - the dog can play more tug of war etc.[/quote] Please don’t allow the kids to climb on the dog, regardless of size. Teach your children that the dog may approach them, but they may not approach the dog. I have a 25 lb and a 10 lb shelter mixes, and a 5 year old son. I have trained dogs professionally for 10 years. The beat thing I ever did was make sure my son was not magnetized to the dogs. The 10 lb dog ADORES him and willingly engages him all the time, because she knows she can end it at any time without fuss.[/quote]
