I had many dogs that had puppies n I raised them all n house trained them..I love them like they was my kids.. All my family members have share a puppy are two from my dog..I miss her so much she pass away in 2016 I had her for over 10 years.. In order to love a an animal you have love yourself first.. I’m a people person I worked in nursing field for years.. I have to teenager 15/19 an I know for fact most small animals don’t like small kids.. They key to handle dogs keep them feed, trained, and happy..Don’t never show fear dogs alway notice a change in a person watch out n stay focus at all times need for dogs
