Many people believe that dogs cannot be raised if there are babies at home, but dogs are very human animals. Children grow up with puppies, which is a kind of companionship, and It allows children to fully experience and feel a process of growth and life and death.

2. Parents should know that children are more likely to be attacked by dogs than adults. Why is this? Because the child is small, it is not a deterrent to the dog, and staring into the dog's eyes can make the dog feel threatened, and the child is about the same height as the dog, this kind of high-level staring It can especially make dogs feel threatened. Children are short, and dogs can easily reach children's faces or simply knock them down. Therefore, many children bitten by dogs are injured in the face, which is terrible.

Actually, according to the US CDC, 80% of the injuries in children who are bitten will be on the head and neck. And many kids are actually bitten by familiar dogs rather than unfamiliar ones.

3. Parents should buy pet dogs that do not bite

In contrast, many small dogs are of particular concern. Such as Chihuahua, Pomeranian, and many types of terriers. The small dog itself is capricious and grumpy like a child. The two children get together and start a fight when they are not careful - but one of them has bigger teeth and sharper claws, so the only person injured can be another.

In order to ensure the safety of children, the editor recommends parents that when choosing a dog, it is best to choose a dog with a moderate size and easy control. Don't look good on the outside, take it home before you understand it clearly, bite the child, and regret it is too late.
