    Looking for small puppy for my kids.
    Preferably a labrador.
    Wife and kids love animals and cant seem to find anyone witha puppy ,must be a puppy as im wary of a larger animal being around the kids.

    if anyone knows anyone in Dublin area with puppies I can give it a good home we have a large back garden and live beside a large public park (about 30 feet form house).

    Will you still be wary in a years time when that labrador puppy becomes that larger animal?? Maybe you should get a smaller breed?.......oh and take out pet insurance. I never did and the dog (lab/red setter cross) has been on steriods for a chronic skin condition for the last 8 years from when she was 1, visits to the vet once or twice a month. Now on arthritis medicine......oh and diagnosed with diabetes in january. Hundreds a year up till now and since the diabetes, between the insulin, needles and vets bills for that, over €1000 since Jan!!! 'IF ONLY' we took out insurance 9 years ago!!!! In saying that we love the pooch to bits and she's worth every penny.

    Get them a goldfish!

    That's what I've done with my last three dogs - they're simply not cute enough once they get past a certain age

    Well kids are very young so the idea is to get both Dog and kids grow with each other from early age.

    Whens he bigger hes bigger but for now they need a small dog.
