Chinese Shar-Peis can be good with children if they are raised together and the children are taught how to interact with dogs respectfully and gently. Their protective nature can make them excellent companions for kids, but supervision is recommended due to their size and strength. As for other pets, socialization plays a critical role. Shar-Peis can coexist peacefully with other animals if introduced properly and early in life. However, they tend to have a strong prey drive, so care should be taken around smaller animals. Consistent training and socialization help mitigate potential issues and foster a harmonious home environment where children and pets feel safe and respected.
