Welcome if you have found yourself here on this page, chances are that you are expecting a baby to be joining your family soon. Whether you are a parent-to-be, grandparent, aunt, uncle, brother or sister I am so glad you found me!
Often, I am contacted by families after the baby begins crawling or walking. Sometimes those calls include a concern about how the dog is adjusting to the new baby, or that since the baby began hitting milestones like crawling, cruising, their dog has become anxious or growly. This program helps to answer the most asked questions and provides insight on dog behavior. We know how much you love your dog and helping them make the transition to a new family member arriving should be easy and safe for everyone involved.
