    What I want to say is - domesticated or not dogs are still just animals, ***not children's toys*** I don't believe in subjecting mine to crap like that and frankly you should be counting your lucky stars the dog is as tolerant as it is to put up with that ridiculousness, most aren't and should never be expected to be. They deserve far better. Buy your kid a stuffed animal and teach her to leave the poor thing in peace or at least learn how to play and interact with it properly.

    Instead what I always say is simply - No
    Amen !! Lol- dogs are animals and kids are kids... So unless I control the situation 100% it isn't going to happen!

    Also- on a side note- sorry for basically double posting my opinion on this post! Forgot I already did!

When you find a dog like that- that fits into your family so well it is such a blessing!! Give roxy a treat from me . I love great dog stories so thanks for sharing!
      Awe... I'll give her and Shorty a pupperoni stick from you. Unfortunately her breed has teeth issues so she can't eat bones but loves pupperoni . My daughter is great at picking animals. She picked Shorty too years ago .

      Matter of fact, she's responsible for picking anything we incorporate in our family. She's very intuitive with animals. We always laugh because people say a few of our cats are ugly. But we don't pick animals by color. We pick them by how they get along in our family unit.

        Just wanted to post a picture our English Mastiff puppy per request. Her name is Zoe and she is 12 weeks and we've had her for 2 weeks now. It's going good, she LOVES kids. No one left either. Everyone says they can't believe how calm she is for a puppy. I am keeping her in a crate out of the daycare during the day but having my hubby take her outside during pick up some days so she can have some socialization with the kids/parents.
        So cute! Look at that little face

          Amen!!! I had the ugliest chihuahua ever but I miss him so much!!! And I find that people who are good with animals are also good picking out the good humans too .
