Chorkies are not a good choice for people with toddlers or very young children because of their tiny size and the fact they may get injured albeit accidentally by a younger child. When frightened, a Chorkie might well snap at a younger child so contact is best avoided. They are a good choice for families with older children who know how to behave and handle such a tiny dog. With this said, any interaction between children and a Chorkie should be supervised by an adult to make sure things go smoothly.
