[quote=Anonymous]Our kids were four and eight when we got a dog, said dog is now 11 years old and curled up next to me sleeping. She weighs about 8 pounds. She is absolutely one of the biggest sources of sunshine in our family. We love her so much. She is REALLY easy. it’s all about temperament and how much activity they need. I know people love their big goldens and labs and whatever but those dogs need so much activity we could not have managed it over the years. But this little dog is practically like a cat that gives us all the doggy affection we all love so much. I agree with a couple of points mentioned above, though, don’t expect the kids to handle the majority of dog care regardless of what they tell you they will do. I will also say, as in many families, my DH was the last hold out or not wanting one but he is so ridiculously in love with her and has been almost from day one. [/quote]
