"Are Puggles good with Children?
Of course there is no way to predict an individual dogs temperment. However, Puggles are bred specifically to be a companion animal--- a family pet. I tell all famlies with children (especially young children), that are considering purchasing or adopting ANY BREED OF DOG, the key is SUPERVISION.

You MUST, MUST, MUST supervise your children and the puppy/dog at all times. This is for the safety of the puppy, as well as your children. Young children can accidentally play to rough with a puppy, step on a puppy hard, pick up a puppy and drop it, squeeze it hard enough to break ribs, etc.. All of these things can cause serious injury or even DEATH to a puppy. So the puppy is actually at most risk, because I think it would be nearly impossible for a Puggle puppy to cause too much damage to a child.

ALL PUPPIES play rough at times. All puppies need to be taught not to jump up and scratch people. All puppies need to be taught not to nibble, nip, bite, or chew on things--including people. This is NORMAL behavior, and why children and puppies should be supervised AT ALL TIMES."
