Number of children and their ages:
Young children, especially those under six years of age, need to be carefully watched when interacting with small puppies.  Children need to be taught to handle young puppies with care to prevent injury to the puppy.  They also need to learn how to gain the dog's respect.  This takes additional time and energy.  If you have children in this age range, be sure you have plenty of extra time to work with the puppy and the child(ren).  Children should NEVER be left unattended with a puppy or small dog.
