Looking for a puppy for an animal sensitive kid. He desperately wants a dog but responds better to puppies, and he fears larger dogs. Having the dog as a pup will have used to animals. Of course I'd be the main care giver, and I'm in it for the long haul. I've had dogs for over 35 years and have a great home and fenced yard. I know there are great rescues, but in this case I'd like to know about the parents temperament so I'd kinda know if it's a good fit for us. We are looking for a medium sized pup, mutts welcome and encouraged!
