We have a 10 year old daughter desperate for a pup. We got a pup last year but we weren't prepared for him and rushed the process and ended up taking him back after 5 days! This broke our daughters heart but it was the right thing yo do at the time. We are thinking of trying again but taking it slowly, we have a 4 year old who was scared of our last pup toy/standard poodle cross. He was too old and wild for her. We are looking at cavachon type pups and want her to be involved in picking and training the pup so she's not scared this time. We also tried to keep the pup in only a couple of rooms which drove him mad plus he couldn't be walked as the breeder hadn't sorted his jabs which didn't help!
Basically I'd like advice on picking a small, friendly non moulting breed that will be ok alone for a few hours some days and will be good with the kids. Also advice on settling a pup in would be very welcome.
