We lived next door to a rottweiler and it was the nicest dog until…children came into the picture. The grandmother lived next door and shared the dog with her daughter. The daughter and I started sharing babysitting but my daughter was 15 months older than her son (although they weighed the same!) and mobile and the first time I left her with them with the dog, I came back to daughter being in a separate room. Shortly after that the dog lived permanently with the grandmother. The dog was fine until there was food to be snatched from a child or shouting and squeals and sudden movement. As time went on, the grandmother didn’t let any children near her dog because he’d begun snapping and being unhappy around others, especially the grandchildren. One bite could have been the end of life for a child, or a bitten finger or something.

Just not worth the risk.
