Our larger dog was kid-shy when it came to other kids. She seems to be okay with Georgia though. She likes to lie down just about an inch out of reach, which is the closest she's ever chosen to get to a child or puppy for that matter.
The little one is super-tolerant of ANYTHING kids want to do to her. I've seen a toddler grab her muzzle by sticking their fingers up her nose and into her mouth and she just stood there and wagged. I've seen a toddler take a bone right out of her mouth and she licked it while the kid held it. I've also seem her over on her back, showing her belly with a child lying on top of her. It's funny because she freaks out and snaps at other dogs if they so much as sniff her tail, but children can do anything and she's fine with it.
At this point Anna likes Georgia far more than Georgia likes Anna. I wish I could have gotten a shot of how she used to wrinkle her nose in disgust when the wet beagle nose touched her. I'm sure that will shift in time as Georgia starts exploring her world more.
