We have a young baby and have recently enquired about adopting a dog. The previous owners aparently are getting rid of the dog because it's jealous of THEIR baby. To me this sounds like the fault of the owners for not introducing the dog and baby properly and failing to pay enough attention to a dog that was probably babied intially itsslf rather than being treated like a dog.
Once I heard why the previous owners are getting rid of the dog, I was wary as we have a baby too. However, do you think this might just be a case of introducing the dog and baby properly? Is this a problem that would carry over to our own situation? Would I be stupid to give this a try? My partner worka with dogs and so is excellent with dog psychology so I wonder if the right approach is simply the key.
