I did a little bit of research on this when my mom wanted to get a dog. She has a day care at home so she needed a dog that would be good with kids. We ended up getting a Basset hound and they are very sweet. They are a little harder to train but they are definately more passive that most other dogs. We have never had problems with her.
Now that I moved out, I got an American Eskimo named Tatum. We adopted her and she is the coolest dog that I have ever had. She is sweet, playful, harmless and very loyal.
