Kids are evil, my ex had 2 kids, 10 and 11 when we got Max and then the ex got holly, a shar pei, which was a nasty piece of work.
The two kids would grab the dogs around the neck full force and wrestle with them to the ground when I wasn't in, I caught them doing it a couple of times and told them off, which was responded to by the ex telling me I was over protective of the dogs and should be nicer to the kids.
Then I came home from work to find that the shar pei had bit the youngest child and when asked what they were doing i got "nothing just went to stroke her" I told the ex and she didnt believe them and didnt get rid of the shar pei.
I broke up with her and took max and hes a much more relaxed dog now, not getting abuse from 2 young kids, not sure whats happened with the shar pei, probably ate them by now.
