How Do I Introduce My Dog To My Baby? Ft. Dog Meets Baby

Brittany and Aleen are joined by Dominika Knossalla, certified dog
trainer and founder of Dog Meets Baby, to talk all about preparing
your dog for a newborn baby’s arrival. They begin with a
conversation about the most common fears parents have when making
the introduction, including some practical tips for a smooth
interaction. Then they jump into a discussion on some of the signs
to look for if dogs are in distress, how to deal with an overly
affectionate dog, and why distancing before the baby arrives is
vital. Plus they tell us how to encourage positive associations
when your dog and baby are finally around each other. Finally, they
close with some additional tips to prepare your dog for your baby,
including changing your dog’s routine, and why you should seriously
consider a dog trainer. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
