Well, I breed Dobermans, they are really the VERY BEST of breeds!!!!! They are so loyal to their families and they give 'unconditional love' they do need 'guidelines' whilst they are young ( well, males do anyway,..lol!) And as long as you love them and they know who is the boss ~ they will protect you and your babies 'till death do us part'Loyalty forever!Good luck ~ and yes, I am biased, I breed Dobermans!!!!!

terriers are lovely and small, but they can be snappy so are not good with young children. Golden retreviers are wonderful. They are a large dog, but they are very gentle natured, (prefect with kids of all ages) and will not allow people not known to them to approach the family.

I would suggest a Basset Hound puppy They are good with kids. Mind you it takes some training for both. The adults must be present at all times when the puppy are with the children. Discipline must be instill in both the children and the pup. Eventually, the Basset pup will be protective of the children. They will also bark if they should hear any unusual noise.

Go with a Golden Retriever. I have had two of them in my life and with both of them they love the people in their family and protect them. They also learn who your friends an neighbors are will like them if you do. They are awesome dogs!

mom2, When I was young my parents brought home a Cocker Spaniel from the pound. That was one of the best things to happen to our family.
