How is the baby doing and how is the dog coping with the new center of attention? Let me know if you have any questions brother.
baby is great, healthy as can be thank god
my dog is actually doing a million times better than I thought he would----I made sure I gave my little girls hat she wore the first day to my pops and had him show it to my dog and sniff it and every time he sniffed it he got a treat. This got him used to the smell and gave him positive association. when I got back from the hospital I did the same thing with her blanket before I introduced them, and when I introduced them i gave him a treat when he sniffed her, it worked out great, he knows to only sniff her and not be hyper.
One thing I do when he's around the baby too is stay calm and make sure I dont yell at him or make it a negative or anxious situation at all, I want him to have a posistive association not a negative or anxious one.
your previous advice helped out heaps brother, like when I got home from the hospital I made sure I came in first and saw him before the baby came in and when my girl came in with hte baby I was outside with him and let him run around for an hour before coming in and meeting the baby, this way he wasnt too excited or anxious.
thanks for the help Sin
