Has been around 2 children under 6, wants them to pet him but does get a little nervous if they try to pick him up. Has been around 3 senior dogs 20-65lbs does not mind them in the room or near him but does get scared when they bark. Hangs out and plays with siblings but always wants the bed to himself. Will absolutely try to steal any liquid treats from you and is the first one ready to dive into the food bowl. Purrs while eating his treats
