Would you let your 5 year old child near a Miniature Pinscher?

So I recently just got a Miniature Pinscher and I`m not sure whether or not my kids should be allowed near it. The dog is very small but packs a hell of a punch as I have been nibbled once or twice by the little bastard. I am scared to let my child go near him, what should I do?

why did you get a dog if you won't let your children near it or don't trust the dog?

Speak to a dog behaviourist.

Small dogs and small kids can often be a poor mix if there's not proper training on either side (yes kids needs training around dogs too!).
