Dog Obedience Training: Prepare Dog For New Baby
After the baby is born
Dog Obedience Training 1: Health Check
Have your dog thoroughly checked by a veterinarian before your baby comes home. This will help you to deal with parasites and other odd problems that could pose the family health risk. Send home a blanket or gown that the baby has been wrapped in from the hospital. This will prepare your dog for the baby's scent.
Dog Obedience Training 2 : Say Hello!!
Introducing the baby to the dog is the first step to a healthy relationship. Experts suggest that when mother and child come home from the hospital, it is best if mother greets the dog alone without the baby. Ask another family member to hold the baby or just make the baby wait in the car with the father while the mother and dog greet each other. This way, one can avoid reprimanding an excited dog that may jump at the baby in an attempt to greet the owner.
After the dog gets used to the smells and sounds of the baby introduce your new bundle of joy to your old mate. Make sure not to push your dog away when his curiosity gets the better of him and he comes to sniff your baby. Also remember to introduce in a quiet room where the dog has few associations. Do not hold a meeting in a place where the dog usually sleeps or eats.
Dog Obedience Training 3 : You are the Best !!
Praise your dog when the baby is around, so that the dog will think the child as a positive influence on its life. When your pet is behaving well around the baby, shower it with thousands praises and crunchy ti- bits. Make sure the first few months the interaction is under control with the baby being held in the adult's arms and the dog allowed to sniff the child. The dog will appear interested for few seconds and will then lose interest. When he backs away make sure to praise him and treat him again.

:
“I
am
clean"
Ensure
that
your
dog
is
treated
for
worms
and
fleas
regularly,
using
products
from
your
vet.
Do
not
leave
any
used
nappies
on
the
floor,
as
the
dogs
may
cause
a
mess
on
the
spot.
Seal
the
nappy
bin
as
it
may
be
appetising
to
certain
dogs.
Clean
your
hands
with
antibacterial
soap
after
feeding,
grooming,
cleaning
or
playing
with
the
dog.
Dog Obedience Training 5 : Do not Punish
Do
not
punish
your
dog.
Experts
say
that
smacking
a
dog
will
incite
biting,
and
it
will
also
cause
your
dog
to
resent
your
child's
presence.
Never
try
to
silence
the
dogs
growling
by
punishing
it.
By
doing
these
you
are
teaching
the
dog
not
to
warn
before
biting.
Growling
is
not
bad
as
it's
the
only
way
your
dog
warns
that
it
is
too
close
to
the
baby
or
telling
you
that
he's
had
enough
and
needs
time
away.
Do
not
leave
the
baby
and
the
dog
alone
even
for
a
second
without
anybodies
supervision.
This
includes
to
all
the
dogs,
even
those
with
an
excellent
temperament.
Dog Obedience Training 6 : Play with me!!
Take
extra
care
as
your
child
starts
crawling
and
toddling
around
the
house
on
its
own
accord.
Depending
on
the
breed,
your
dog
may
be
absolutely
terrified
of
this
little
crawling
creature
or
it
may
even
view
your
child
as
a
prey.
Be
with
the
child
as
your
dog
get
used
to
your
baby
moving
itself
around
as
opposed
to
being
carried
around.
Keep
your
dog
next
to
you
while
the
baby
is
crawling
or
walking
and
reward
him
for
being
still.
Your
dog
will
most
likely
get
used
to
your
child"s
new
movements
in
no
time
at
all.
Restrict
the
places
where
your
dog
is
going
to
walk
around
like
a
zombie
and
your
exploring
baby
is
toddling
for
more
attention.
At
the
initial
stage
you
may
feel
exhausted
to
play
with
your
dog
in
addition
to
caring
for
your
new
baby,
but
the
extra
effort
will
be
worth
it
as
your
will
experience
the
growth
of
inseperable
companions
in
the
years
ahead.
