Im definitely not worried about how my current dogs would treat a pup. We are trying for kids in a few years and im worried about a doxie snapping at them too.
I didn't want to give the impression that they would nip a child who is a family member and has regular interaction with the dog. Especially if there was a baby brought home and the dog was exposed to them at the earliest stages where the child is no threat. As I stated they are loyal to a fault. But visiting children or a child approaching on the street if you are walking them, could be another story.
