Each breed, even the most pretty one, has features that will overshadow cohabitation in the same house with a child.
But some breeds of dogs, due to the peculiarities of the breed, get along hard with children - and some of the parties may suffer greatly.
Corgi
These cute little dogs are actually born shepherds - and they treat children the same way they treat sheep. They can chase, pull on clothes - and the more the child runs away, the more eagerly the dog chases him. Accordingly, the baby may be afraid of such aggressive behavior. But for the dog itself, it is natural.
Akita
Who doesn't want to have this cute dog after the movie "Hachiko"? She is loyal, devoted - but can be far from harmless. Akita is a guard dog, she dislikes all strangers and especially other people's children. Therefore, you cannot trust her to walk the child - especially if he wants to show the animal to his friends.
Akita can attack a person or other animal - and it takes considerable strength to hold it. It is better not to start this breed until the child is at least 8 years old.
Chihuahua
They are tiny - but they can be aggressive. Chihuahuas - dogs are jealous, and can attack a child if the owner or owner is jealous of the baby, and also bite if his actions are not pleasant.
And the animal itself can easily suffer if it falls into the tenacious hands of a three-year-old, because it is very delicate and fragile.
Chow Chow
By their nature, these dogs are restrained and do not like to be run after them, "squeeze", make loud sounds. But this is exactly what a child will want to do when he sees such a "teddy bear".
The dog may show aggression in response to this behavior. But it is more difficult to train her and teach her commands than representatives of other breeds. Chow-chow cannot stand excessive attention and activity, and being alone is quite welcome.
