I would NOT suggest a Boston Terrier with small children. They are wonderful little dogs, but my experience is that they are very, very busy and just not the type of dog I would think of as a "kids" dogs. Unfortunately, my favorite dogs for kids are dogs that shed. And fortunately for me, I don't care! LOL! My daughter has grown up with Labs and Golden Retrievers, and also a very nice Cocker Spaniel (who by the way, didn't shed). You might consider adopting an adult dog that you could "test" with your kids, either purebred from a rescue group, or just a wonderful mixed breed from the animal shelter.
Good luck with your decision. You will find that on this board, we love ALL dogs, small and large.
And I must say that every picture you guys have posted is absolutely wonderful!!! Bella, Reece, Buffy, you look marvelous!!!
