    • Yes. They are beautiful dogs and very excitable. They love being with a family as long as they are treated right. I have never known one of these breeds of dogs to be vicious. They are a great choice.

    • In general, the answer is yes. But you must make sure that your children realise that a puppy is not a toy, when the puppy is asleep or eating or going to the toilet, make sure your children leave it alone. Puppies of all breeds have sharp little teeth, so best teach your children to be careful. Never leave a puppy and small children alone together. Puppies are very fragile.

    • My daughters were 6 and 8 when I got our cavalier Pippin.My 6 year old was terrified of all dogs. As she grew up she learned to love dogs and would often be asking people if she could pat their dog. A local park had a meeting where people would bring their dogs to socialize. My daughter would even come with me and play with the larger dogs there.Any time there were toddlers and very small children Pippin was extremely well behaved and gentle. He seemed to know that jumping up didn't work with small children.Like any breed, some discipline is needed for training, however, Pippin was a pleasure to train, walk and play with.I hope you get a dog that is just as well behaved.

    • Yes they are! I have one she's called Alice and she is the most friendliest dog in the world she has never bit any small children, she has only bit one person and that was me when I tried to move her off of my seat on the sofa which she tricked me to get off of so she could sit there but it was only a little playful nip. They are really friendly, I know loads. They are lap dogs or what my mum calls them heated blankets. They will stay on your lap nearly all day.
