There is no such child in the world who would not like to have a dog, play with it and run around the yard with his beloved pet. All parents, sooner or later, face a situation where the child begins to ask to get a dog. By and large, there is nothing wrong with keeping a dog in a house where a child grows up, but before you get a puppy, you need to know certain subtleties.      

Dogs are a great way to teach a child basic behaviors: sharing, playing, being affectionate. A dog can be an endless source of love for a child. Therefore, do not immediately deny the child the desire to have a four-legged friend! The main difficulty arises when it comes to choosing the breed of dog that would be most suitable not only for the child, but for all family members. Many families do not think about the fact that not all dogs are suitable for keeping in a family with children. Subsequently, such errors can lead to various problems.

Dog breeds suitable for the whole family, including children, should be playful, they should not have aggression, the animal should love children and love spending time in the company of a baby. At the same time, it must be borne in mind that some breeds that adore children are quite large in size, and therefore, during the game, they can injure children. Even the most loving large dog can inadvertently injure a child, for example, scratch it. That is why dogs and children should always be under the close supervision of adults.

Dog breeds for children come in different sizes, which means that it is initially necessary to decide on this parameter. Before deciding to purchase a dog of a certain breed, carefully study all the information about it! You need to know how active the dog is and what his needs are. This is necessary in order to be sure that you can ensure the normal development of the animal.

Given that allergies are very common in children, you need to make sure your child is healthy, and for this it is best to consult a pediatrician and heed his advice. In order for the doctor to give the right advice, you need to know what breed of dog you are going to have! And one more thing you need to understand: not only a child should develop normally in the company of a dog, but also the dog itself!
