The Ten Top Breeds for Families

1. When in doubt, go for smaller, less active dogs; a two year old and a big, bouncy field dog are not a good combination.

2. Stay clear of the herding dogs and more protective breeds if you have younger children (under age 5). They can nip at things that move awkwardly.

The ten breeds he would recommend for families are:

* Beagle
* Bulldog (French)
* Cairn Terrier
* Cocker Spaniel (English)
* Golden Retriever
* King Charles Spaniel
* Labrador Retriever
* Old English Sheepdog
* Poodle
* Pug

Doggie Do's and Don'ts

Wake up and walk. Most dogs are wired to be active. When they're not, pent-up energy leads to whining and chewing. It's a must to take your dog on a 45-minute walk or run before work. If you can, hire a dog walker for midday. "A dog that's tired doesn't bite, dig holes or bark."

Touch, but never hit. Don't be afraid to use touch to tell a dog he's broken the rules: Millan pulls at the tuft of the neck and gives a gentle nudge -- not to hurt the dog, but to surprise and correct.

Mini Goats - a childs best friend

Our mini goats have been responsible for assisting children to become more confident with animals. These little gems are so friendly and affectionate and just adore human company.
Their playful antics have children and adults alike completely enthralled.

Mini goats will bond well with most other pets if introduced correctly.
They are very good at letting you know if something isn't right, like an intruder on your property, be it, slimey, four legged or human variety...

Contrary to popular belief goats do not eat anything....in fact they can be fussy eaters.
