   I don't know if thats the right breed for kids. I would go to your libary or on the computer and see what breeds are good with kids. Some breeds can handle kids and some breeds hate kids. I see so many dogs who end up in the pound or get killed cause their not the right breed. Another thing you can do if your thinking of geting purebreed is go to a Dog Show. Talk to a Vet and a dog trainer to see what breed are good for you. If you want a mut talk to a trainer and get them to go with you and let them help you. Please when you get your dog please go to Obedience classes. I hope that helps you and please let me know how things are going. Ps after your dog gets anought Obedience you could try Agility and Flyball. Your little girl would like it and they will learn to me partners and learn together.
