Question
Are these dogs good with children and are they a good choice?

Answer
I don't sell my Poms to people with small children.  If a child should stumble and fall on a 5 lb Pom chances are it
would be killed.  If you put a pup on a sofa or chair and it jumps your percentage of broke legs is about 99 %. Check with your vet...you are looking at $1250 and up to pin a broken leg.

I feel cocker spaniels, miniature pinschers, Jack Russell Terriers something in this size range makes a far better pet in that a child playing with one...would not by accident hurt it.
