[QUOTE="Jungleland, post: 254189, member: 4598"] Glad my mind wasn't the only one in the gutter!! snort snort In my opinion, animals, dogs especially are amazing therapy for kids, well adults too! Could never imagine my or my kids lives without our furry family members. Right now I am not big on puppies though, our 6 month old GSD is making me nutso! He is HUGE but thinks he is about 10 lbs and is constantly knocking the kids over. we are working on this, but oy vey!! What about a slightly older than puppy rescue dog? There are amazing Boxer rescues as well as GSD's and just about all breeds that have already been fixed, current on shots and usually have been in a foster home for a while so they know them pretty well. I tend to like rescues better than humane shelters cause the rescue dogs get more one on one attention. Anyways, YES to a dog being good for social issues with kids!! Be sure to post a picture when you get your furry family member. Hugs, Vickie [/QUOTE]
