Hey congrats, Lisa! I didn’t realize your second baby was on the way! Yay! Our dog has been permanently traumatized by the addition of kids to our family. He hasn’t stopped pouting since–poor guy! Largely he just completely ignores them, which I would take over aggression any day, but it’s still rough, I know. Go you for trying to build the relationship between your “children” and hope it improves soon 😉

Hi Lisa, I feel ya. I have a dog who has anxiety aggression – he gets down right vicious with strangers and isn’t use to kids. I now have an 11 month old crawling after him all the time which he hasn’t shown any signs of aggression towards, he just runs away. My solution is to separate them only because I don’t trust the dog and my little one is too young to understand not to pull his hair out. In the past (well before the baby) I took him to a dog trainer out near Blenheim – he was amazing with him and the only ‘stranger’ that the dog didn’t snap at and gave us great pointers on how to deal with his anxiety. His dog kennel isn’t the newest or cleanest, but I thought his skills made up for that. Not sure if he could help you or if you’d like to go the distance, but his number is 519-360-6462 and it’s called Top Dog Pet Services (can’t remember his name).
