true but reading through the complete description of the breeds offered give you a better understanding.
It isn't a breed that is good or not good with children but the dog (breeding) itself. I have noted in my own dogs in the past which ones were great with kids and which weren't... normally it is in the experince of the dog if they like or don't like kids. One GSD I had hated any kid that wasn't family and she knew who family was even on first meeting. It was her experience, to our shock, that a nasty neighbor kid would climb into our yard and chase her with a stick and try to beat her. Until I caught the little bugger
and scared the life out of him.
Normally all dogs that are great with other dogs are good with children.

this last one includes many questions even cost of weekly feeding, children and a few other I was interested in seeing. Came up with some interesting dogs for my parents.
