A New Dog

lhasa apso's are a 12-20 pound dog with silky hair, good with kid's, they think their rottweilers so they protect well, they hear everything it's amazing. and the best part is they " don't " shed.

always supervise your dog whenever they are with your children on the floor or bed or whatever. you teach them both how to handle each other. my shih tzu is very patient with children. they are hardy dogs and they are family dogs. my shih tzu also gets excited when he sees children on the street. he likes to play with them. a labrador puppy for instance while good dogs when they are adults are very destructive when they are puppies. they also like to rough play and they might step on your children accidently or something. so unless you get an adult lab, pls. don't take a puppy one. it's very hard to manage. good luck!

Never bring big and aggressive dogs to homes where small children reside. This is because,if they ever do some harm to the dog, it will definetly fight back. Even a growl can leave the small children frightened and sometimes it can go worse. This is from my personnel experience. My brother plunged the sharp edge of a pen on to the forehead of the dog which we kept, when he was very small and since he was a local breed it didn't do much but gave a frightening growl. And my brother had to suffer many complications. Before you ever bring a dog to the young ones, make them understand that the dog is your friend who also have feelings of happiness and pain and that he is not your toy.Never forget to vaccinate him, and keep it clean since it can carry disease.
