Hello Im Ali and we have two family dogs living in our home with children. My dogs are spoiled rotten and live a great life ! No health concerns ever or vet visits other than shot updates. The puppies are kept in a whelping box in the dining room and interacted with multiple times daily. Our puppies are family until they become your family. The stud father is my sister in laws Aprioct Toy Poodle, which is also their family pet and living in their home with children.
