Doberman and a Weimaraner in the house. But both of our dogs have been perfect with the kids...even with the babies. There will be the obligatory, "get too close to sniff" and I'm sure Laura's Mommy Hackles will raise up just a protective little bit. But soon enough, they dogs will come to realize the baby is just another member of the family...to be ignored until it holds a treat in its tiny lil hand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2150346819889028468.post-21743522590335652232009-03-18T19:57:00.000-04:002009-03-18T19:57:00.000-04:00Funny, our fish didn't react like that at all.Funny, our fish didn't react like that at all.Captain Dumbasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02214826608461609241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2150346819889028468.post-56325779310709834732009-03-18T18:22:00.000-04:002009-03-18T18:22:00.000-04:00great advice about bringing home something that sm...great advice about bringing home something that smells of the baby and having mom walk in without the baby! we tell our clients that all the time at the animal hospital i work at. i did it when we brought evelyn home and it worked great! the dogs will really fall in love when the little one starts dropping food on the floor. :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172535846028606124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2150346819889028468.post-83779370877353712452009-03-18T17:30:00.000-04:002009-03-18T17:30:00.000-04:00Your puppies will be wonderful protectors of Mauld...Your puppies will be wonderful protectors of Mauldin when he arrives (which he will soon enough!). Don't forget to bring something smelling of Mauldin home from the hospital (a shirt, singlet or blanket) as soon as possible for the pups to sniff and get used to the scent. Also, Laura shouldn't walk into the house holding the baby if the dogs are in the house. She should be sans baby the first time she greets the puppies after having him. We did this with Ben and Bolts and they have been best friends ever since : )<BR/><BR/>MellyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2150346819889028468.post-18823618318742020042009-03-18T15:57:00.000-04:002009-03-18T15:57:00.000-04:00Patience dude.

You should be savoring these final days.<BR/><BR/>As for the dogs, our one dog kind of went through the same thing when HotMomma was pregnant with our first son. She was also a little hesitant about the little guy when we brought him home. Fortunately, very quickly they bonded and she became an enthusiastic protector of the baby.Jason Rothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12344040175168572355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2150346819889028468.post-78770790085907092692009-03-18T13:02:00.000-04:002009-03-18T13:02:00.000-04:00They have definately not been themselves recently....They have definately not been themselves recently. I think that as soon as we hit the door with Mauldin, Logan will take on the role of protective Mommy and Andy will remain...well...Andy will remain the same.

It's gonna be fun to watch. I always worried about the baby's toys and pacifier, etc.....didn't want my doggie to get it's mouth on any of it and I found that he was very good about not touching any of them. I hope you have the same luck that I did in that department. I have to admit - I cringed when I read about the dogs licking up the amniotic fluid. ICK!
