We adopted our shepherd mix from the local shelter. He is now 6 mos. old and such a blessing.
We also have a daushaund/ beagle mix who was also rescued. He is 8 years old. He originally belonged to breeders who attempted to drown him and his sister Molly because they were not "good enough" and my Tippy was the runt. The folks who saved him took Molly and gave Tippy to us.
A breed I highly recommend for kids are labs and golden retrievers.
Our family raised puppies for "THE SEEING EYE" and although it was heart wrentching to have to return Keno to them, raising him was a blessing.
TSE uses goldens. labs and shepherds. Keno is a yellow lab. We learned so much about raising dogs and socializing by raising a guide puppy, and I think that is why our 6 month old, Lobo does so well.
