What type of dogs are safe, gentle and sweet around toddlers and small children? Especially if the children like to pull and hit animals. (not intentionally hurting)

But also protective.

I am just watching a show about Bull Sharks on channel 5 (UK) and I cannot understand the fact that although there are loads of fish swimming all around, the sharks only eat the fish that the people are giving to them. Does anyone know why?

About 2-3 weeks ago my cat came home one morning with a scratch above his eye, and puncture wound (1/4 in deep, maybe from another cats fang?) below his ear. I didn't think to much of it, I cleaned it and put on some antibiotic ointment and kept an eye on it for a couple of days. It healed find, you can feel a little scar tissue where the puncture would was.
Well, yesterday that side of his (from ear to jaw) was majorly swollen. Today its not as swollen, but there is blood all over his fur, and his fur is coming out in tufts. He won't let me look at, he ran away the last time I tried and hasn't shown his face in the last 5 hours. My vet is on vacation and won't be back until monday. I have no idea what to do! Anyone ever experience anything like this before? Could it be some weird insect thats buring into him? Maybe a tic? Please help

My cat is a year and a half old and latley he has been caught knawing on stuff, like the corner of the wall or the leg of the coffee table? Could he be getting more teeth being he is still young or is he in pain? He is eating and drinking like normal and is being normal otherwise? Hoping someone has some insight!

I put him in a 5 gallon tank with 2 guppies, 2 tiger barbs, and a very, very friendly female Platy. What do I feed the algae eater? I know he eats algae, but do I have to feed him something else as well? I never had an algae eater so someone answer this question.
