[quote=Anonymous]Best thing to do is not get hung up on a particular breed. Start going to adoption events and find a dog your family falls in love with. You can also tell how the dog will react to all your kids. Some dogs just react to certain people (it took our dog awhile to get used to men, I think she was abused by a man before). Talk to the rescue group about the dogs. You need a dog that is OK with a lot going on in the home. Some dogs need more quiet, some are laid back. After you get the dog, hire a trainer to come to the house when the whole family is there. Training a dog is as much about the people as the dog. Everyone needs to be consistent. [/quote]
