I would like to see a rule in Iceland about children under 14 not being allowed to walk dogs on their own, it´s just amazing how many parents send young children out with massive dogs.
I have actually seen a 6 year old out walking an 8 month old Great dane. Probably around 3 times the weight of the kid[sm=no no smiley.gif]
I don´t think I would send anyone under 14-16 out with a fully grown staffie just because the kid might not be able to handle situations it´s put into by other people or loose dogs. And a fully grown staffie is extremely strong aswell. I would like the kid to be atleast 3 times the weight of the dog to properly controle it in all situations
