Coming home from the hospital, I was anxious about how my 1.5 year old Labrador (Choncho) would receive the newest member of the family. I had researched a lot of different techniques on how to slowly and responsibly introduce a newborn to a high-strung, attention-seeking, strong-n-bulky canines, to a fragile, vulnerable, tini-tiny newborn in a two bedroom apartment ππ
after some youtube videos and tutorials, I found the right balance to have this intro go smoothly and cautiously
for those of you who have pets and are growing your family, I highly suggest these types of thoughtful encounters to create a safer and more familiar environment for your babies and pets π
