Which is why they give lists out on how to prepare the animal and how long to wait to introduce (like boarding the animal if needed). Animals are always unknown quantities.
Indeed, they are.
My reptile forums regularly break out in flame wars over photos of people draping their snakes/lizards over their dogs or allowing them to “cuddle” with cats.
The cat/dog owners always get butt hurt over the admonitions but facts are facts.
In less than a second, Fluffy or Fido can fatally injure your beloved reptile.
Why risk it?
When I was teen, the first thing I taught my Dobes was respect and gentleness for kids.
The breed is inexplicably crazy for children anyway but more is better.
[I suspect the Beauceron/herding dog influence accounts for it]
Around kids, my great concern is being yanked off my feet because the Dobes spotted a kid across the store and want to fly me like a kite so they can go worship it.

Well.
Some special snowflake did not like the photo of the actual dog and its *obvious* genetics.
Didn’t fit the narrative.
Maybe I’ll be ZOTed for even mentioning it.
