English Toy Spaniel
Possibly because the English Toy Spaniel includes ‘toy’ in its name, as well as their extremely cute and cuddly appearance, this breed is often thought to be great for kids. However, this is not altogether true. They react violently if they feel mistreated – so rough play with kids can be a problem. They also need very strong leadership otherwise they can become dominant in the household, and a dominant Toy Spaniel can be very aggressive and territorial, and think of themselves as the masters of the domain. But if trained properly they can also be lovely pets.

Greyhound
Greyhounds were bred for racing originally, they have tons of energy and are extremely fast runners. They need a lot of daily physical activity, so if you have children around and not a lot of time or space for them to run around in, this may be a problem. They also have a tendency to attack small animals and don’t like rough play, so they probably won’t tolerate little ones hovering or pulling at them.
