I agree with Lulu and others.
I was raised with shepherds and farm dogs my whole life, so I am no prude about dogs around kids. But hunting dogs that are used as hunting dogs need not to be treated as pets - they are simply not pets. And especially around kids is just irresponsible imo.
You are much better off getting another shepherd. You can get the puppies that dont make it as police dogs, just call the K9 division of the police in your state and they will tell you when the next intake is up. That way you know they have been socialised, temperament tested and have begun training. They are excellent dogs around kids, even littleys, when trained properly

Good luck!
