I have 4 dogs each of a different breed and have trained and showed dobies in the 80s and early 90s.Any dog raised with children and taught to respect them can be ok and trusted and vise versa..kids should never be allowed to tug,bite,pull on a dog in the first place and excpect the dog to "take it" nanny said dog or not.Certain breeds not raised with small children are not automatically safe around children again dubbed nanny dog or not.I have an Amstaff thats not raised around small children..my son is 12 and as big as I am but I would not trust him with a pinching pulling toddler or crying infant around.I have a cocker spaniel that will bite the pants off any kids period.No dog should IMO be dubbed a'Nanny Dog" just plain stupid.
