I have 2 dogs who are very annoying, but gentle . I keep them separate from my dck's who are all 2 yo and younger. One of my dogs is a beagle, the other is a golden retreiver/german shepherd mix. The children I watch are just too young to be trusted to be gentle with my dogs. The dogs are both older so I worry when the kids want to sit on them. None of them have ever hurt one of my dogs on purpose, but the beagle especially cannot take rough handling. The dck's think they are ride on toys. So, once in a great while, I have let them pet the dogs, but usually the dogs are gated away from the kids. Just easier and safer that way.
