Preparing the dog for a new baby
Avoid Problems by Preparing the Family Dog for Baby’s Arrival
The arrival of a new baby into the family can create unanticipated problems for dog owners. The story of the Kentucky newborn snatched from his crib illustrates that even a beloved family pet go be a serious, if unintentional, threat.
Problems can be avoided with a little advance planning, according to Brie Huddleston , a professional dog trainer with Best Friends Pet Care. “It’s important to include the family dog in preparations for the new arrival,” says Brie. “Otherwise, he may become anxious about his role in the family and act up. Even simple curiosity about a strange new creature in the home can make him a potential danger.”
She recommends the following:
1) Introduce the sounds, sights and smells of a new baby well in advance of the due date. Play a recording of a baby crying and the musical toy you plan to use in the crib. Use a doll to role play how you will hold and care for your baby. Apply baby powder and baby lotion to your hands and to the doll so he gets used to the smell.
2) Refresh your dog’s training skills well before baby arrives. A well-trained dog who obeys your commands is one of the best safeguards for your new baby. Enroll in a basic training or a refresher course and be sure to practice with him. Be sure your dog knows the “down” command and that you use whenever baby enters the room.
3) Gradually decrease the time you spend with your pet. You’ll have less time for him once baby comes and a gradual shift will make the transition. If you have a high-energy dog who needs lots of exercise, enroll him in a doggy day camp program a few days a week.
4) Supervise every interaction. No matter how well-trained, a dog’s reaction to a baby is unpredictable. Never leave them alone together. Know where your dog is at all times and don’t give him freedom to roam. Closely watch his reaction to baby; if you see any sign of stress or aggression, seek help from a professional trainer. If serious behavioral problems can’t be resolved, it may be best to find a new home -- both for the safety of the newborn and the well-being of the pet.

She offers private training throughout the Cincinnati area and group classes at the Best Friends Pet Care Cincinnati,OH.i For more information, visit http://www.bestfriendspetcare.com/ or call 888-FOR-PETS.
