A new baby fundamentally changes your dog's routine. With preparation, you can make this transition stress-free for the dog.

Prepare in Advance

Apply upcoming routine changes gradually months before the baby arrives. Get the dog used to new sounds and smells.

Build a Positive Association

Make moments when the baby and dog are together positive with rewards. Let the dog learn the baby brings "good things".

Balance Attention

Don't completely neglect the dog; make quality time even with the baby around. This reduces jealousy and anxiety.
