Pet Tips
Dogs and Children
If you have a younger child and are getting a dog, first, pick a dog five months of age or older – this gets past the puppy chewing due to teething. Next, pick a dog that will grow to be 15 pounds or larger. This weight helps prevent the young child from accidentally hurting the dog. No matter what pet you choose, a child should be supervised around any animal.
