I have 2 dogs, a 10 yr old female beagle (35 lbs) and a 9 yr old male jack russell terrier (18 lbs). They spend most of the time blocked off but i do let them the kids mix with them. The dckids love to feed and play with them, and most of my dckids have or have had dogs, so it makes no difference to those parents. The dogs were an issue with only one family because the child had allergies. They have always been around kids and are good with them.

I tell everyone in the interview process and it is in my handbook, i am upfront like that though. my dogs are current on all shots, and have been to puppy training and are fixed.
