The doghouse

My gsd and my pregnacy

I'm sure our dog knew I was pregnant before I did.
I kept sniffing round my bum and following me more than he usually does.
I must admit that when I'm due on he normally sniffs me a bit more than usual but now he's pretty much by my side. Which I love! But can get a bit claustrophobic.

I also haven't walked him since I found out as he can be a bit pully on the lead and am not sure about picking up dog poo either.

Anyway I love my gsd, he's ssoooo beautiful and loving Smile

So long as he is regularly wormed with a good quality wormer-not supermarket stuff, you'll be fine. Just wash your hands, you're thinking of cats and toxoplasmosis.

Get him s haltieor headcollar and walk him. It's not fair on him not to and the exercise will do you good.

He's on the good stuff and he still gets walked by dh

I'd strongly recommend doing dog training classes. They are great fun, and loose lead walking is one of things that's covered. Once the baby arrives, it will make a huge difference to you to be able to walk gently with baby, stroller etc and dog walking nicely besides you. Xmas Smile

And congratulations!
