My DD and her DH have a young/year old staffie.
DD is 26 weeks pregnant with her first baby.
We just had a conversation about her putting a travel cot in the living room with some sort of cover so that she can leave the baby in the room and the dog wont be able to get in the cot with it.
I said that she mustn't leave the baby in the room with the dog at all. A staffie could easily rip through the side of a travel cot and if it sees the baby moving and doesn't know what it is it could go for it. A cover wouldn't provide any protection.
She says the dog won't go for the baby. She KNOWS it wouldn't.
Firstly AIBU for interfering or giving my opinion anyway. Secondly AIBU about the dog? Personally I wouldn't leave a baby in a room with any dog. We are not on the best of terms and are only just beginning to rebuild our relationship, therefore I am already treading on eggshells and am hoping to be a non- judgemental and supportive grandmother.
