Hi everyone,
We have two labradors, one is 3 years old who has a lovely and calm natured with a mother instinct to our friends children, the other one is 1 year old at the end of the month who is still understanding boundaries (jumps up at you, attempts to scratch you for attention, runs loose around the house at times and so on).
I'm 5 months pregnant and due in November. Normally I'm the one who trains the dogs however I'm now unable to continue and need to focus on my pregnancy.
My partner didn't help with training at all and doesn't have the patience, however I've given him the sad ultimatum of if he does not 'pull his finger out' and train our youngest pup with respecting boundaries and us then we will have no choice but to explore alternative options where she is no longer with us.
The idea of having a newborn and two dogs (one that will put me at risk during pregnancy - jumping on me and pushing me over without boundaries) puts me on complete edge.
Does anyone have any advice or happy to share how they got on integrating your baby into the family with two medium/large dogs?
If anyone would be happy to share that would be great 😊
