YOUR SHICHON PUPPY OR SHIH-TZU PUPPY AND SMALL CHILDREN
Our
shichon or shih-tzu puppies do very well with young children as long
as a few guidelines are set in place.
The
children MUST be taught to understand the puppy
and handle him properly.
Play time
between our shichon or shih-tzu puppies and children must be 100%
supervised for the first couple months until the
puppy gets older.
If you
think about it ~ you wouldn’t allow your 2 or 3
year old to take your two month old baby into
the other room to play with, would you?
Then
please don’t allow them to take your new
shih-tzu
or shichon puppy
out of your sight.
Play
periods must be kept short.
If you’ve
been playing with the puppy for 10-15 minutes,
then place the puppy back in its pen or crate so
that it can have some rest time also.
Just as an
infant, a new shichon or shih-tzu puppy needs frequent rests. Have your children sit on the floor so that they
are at the puppy’s level.
Let the
puppy come up to the children rather than the
children going up to the puppy.
A child
moves quickly and sometimes rather clumsily, and
this could frighten a shih-tzu or shichon puppy and cause it to nip
in self defense.
A child
should never run or shout while holding the
puppy, as this also would cause the puppy to
become frightened.
A shih-tzu
or shichon puppy
will grow and mature just as a child grows and
no longer needs as much supervision.
