Just from personal experience, our vet recommends that families with young kids should stay away from Chows, Pits, Rotts and Huskies. This is just from stats (I think).

My person opinion is that any dog should be watch with a young infant.They are dogs and view smaller items as prey so in reality any dog is capable of killing an infant if supervision isn’t a constant and close watch of where the infant and dog is at all times.

The German Shepherd rescue I volunteer for will not place certain dogs if the adopters have smaller children. Most of the time it is because the dog has jumping on people issues but sometimes the dog has food and toy possession issues.

The German Shepherd I am fostering cannot be placed with families with smaller children or people with disabilities because he is too strong for them (not a jumper or possessive).
