We've decided that we would like to get another dog in 2011 - we haven't had one for a few years.
Now I'm working from home I think it's fairer on a dog but we obviously need to get one that's going to be tolerant of children as we have a 3 year old ourself (and 13 year old twins) and there'll be different children of various ages coming and going (although we will be able to seperate the dog both inside and in the garden when childminding children are here).
We're thinking of a smaller dog - we'll be able to walk it twice a day but won't be able to go for 2 hour walks each time which is what our border collie needed when we had her!
My husband has suggested a Cavalier King Charles - he had one when he was younger and all the information says they are good with children. However, a few people have said they can be prone to lots of health problems?
Any suggestions would be gratefully received!
