Kids Health Problems

Marcia Said:

Why are cigarettes legal if they cause health issues? Marijuana is illegal, but it causes less health problems?

We Answered:

First off the last post is AN IDIOT because there is no such word as WORSER!
Secondly, The government makes money from cigarettes. They are highly taxed. Which is why they are not illegal. Cigarettes and alcohol are much worse for you than any illegal drug. But the government makes money from them. Alcohol is mood altering and it is still legal, so that throws that argument out the window.

What are some small dogs that are good with kids and cats and don't have too many health problems?

We Answered:

Yes perhaps a small dog is not a good idea with small children.
If it was me i would pick a Staffordshire bull terrier as they are not to big , not too small and are amazing with children they are known as nanny dogs as they love kids too. An there very loyal and willing to please , mines only 2 and she hasn't been brought up with young children so doesn't see them often and i take her to my friends house who has a 2 year old and a 6 month old baby and she totally understands that there young and to small to be rough with even tho shes totally mental at home lol. But also if you bring them up with cats they are fine with them. And if you do decide to get 1 check the parents of the litter to make sure they have passed all the tests for diseases some types of breeds only get and will be less likely to occur in your pup.

Marlene Said:

what's a good toy dog with kids, one with few health problems

We Answered:

All breeds have health problems that they are prone too. There is no one breed that has few problems. However if you seek a reputable breeder who studies their pedigrees and does genetic health testing, you have a good chance of getting a healthy dog.

Most small breeds tend to be yappy and difficult to housebreak, unfortunantly. Most small dogs were also bred as alert dogs, so they do tend to bark at things. However, small dogs are also trainable if you take the time to work with them.


Try googling "dog breed selector" and use one of those. Put information about what you want out of a dog, such as coat type, trainability, size, etc.. it will also asking things about how much time you have to dedicate to grooming and exercize.. if you need a dog good with kids/cats/other dogs, etc.

Check out some of the top breeds it mentions... when you find a breed you like, look for the breed parent club for a breeder referral.. you can ussually find this information on www.akc.org.
