Molly, who will very soon be 12, does not tolerate young children very well. Thankfully, they are few and far between at our house. When one is here she stays in the crate. I understand where she's coming from as they annoy me, too! Barb Bowes Bo, Molly, Chelsea (Pyrs) & Flopsy (Pyr Shep) The more people I meet, the more I like my dog! bamb@monmouth.com
