Baby-poll poll What would you do to your dog is they spapped or growled at your LO?
(Baby poll by felicia-lundstrom, 925 days ago)
Get rid of the dog!
Smack him and say NO! Then move him into another room and keep him away from the LO.
Do nothing, because you know the dog won't hurt the LO.
Please comment.

That would be the end of the dog.

I have the opp. my dog LOVES the baby too much!! Always trying to give kisses. She is a 100 lb german shepherd. He gets scared once in a while and when he cries she kiss him and goes away. This is a really hard choice and no clear option. I would get a trainer and try to work with the dog! If not then that is a danger to you baby and you should rehome the dog! =( Its probably a jealousy issue . Some dont h\just can not get along with children. We had a dog when I was a child and I was playing with her outside and my mom saw the dog going form my neck a few times. The dog so gone the next day!! Child always comes first. But please try everything before you rehome your dog. I see alot of people on craigslist just getting rid of their pets b/c they are Pregnant, ( which pisses me off) But if the dog is dangerous around kids then the dog has to go to a home with no kids. Good Luck!!!

I`d get a GOOD trainer on the phone. Have him/her come out to see how the dog is around the baby in all situations, then go from there with their recommendations.

ive never been much of an animal person and i dont trust dogs around small kid cuz i was bit in the face as a child. i would prolly get rid of the dog cuz a small child doesnt know to not pull on it or poke it in the eye and a dog can only growl or bite to say hey ur hurting me.

I`d get rid of him sorry -- I`ve heard too many terrible stories about `good` dogs lashing out at babies resulting in injury or death. I wouldn`t take a chance ..next time it could be a bite. Don`t put your baby at that kind or risk :(

I don`t trust anything with teeth, sorry. If our dog showed any sign of being disturbed by the baby she would have to go. As much as they are parts of peoples families, they are still animals. I was attacked and bit by someones dog who got loose when I was 7mo pg with my second son. The owners said their dog would never do anything like that, lol! I wasn`t doing anything but walking up to my porch carrying my oldest son who was 2 at the time. I still have scars..... I`m just saying no one knows what an animal will or won`t do. I still love dogs, we have one, but like I said, I don`t trust anything with teeth, lol!

My dog is fine with our daughter but lately she has been barking and growling at other children (which is a problem because I have a fair few friends with children) I don`t know if she is being protective or just being jealous as much as it would pain me and I am sure my husband and my daughter I can`t have a dog with a risk like that because you don`t know if it will be your child or even someone else`s next. I am going to give her a little go and see what happens but if she keeps doing it we will have to get rid of her.

My son wss furniture cruising and saw the dog sleeping on the couch so he went to pet him and the dog woke up and snapped and growled at him. We said NO! and moved him away but I was sooo upset! It`s the 2nd time he`s done this and I am thinking about maybe getting rid of him. He is a small dog! maltise/poodle.. I don`t think he would actually bite him, but I really don`t know, dogs are unpredictable...

It depends why he was growling.Was she playing with him or maybe hurting him?a dog cant say `hey ur hurting me`,but if he is just jealous id get rid of the dog.

  1. Thanks to my twin`s ability to trek down here, my records are straightened out! I will be having my first appointment on February 29th. I will be 10 weeks-ish. Around here that is about when they want to see you. When did you get your first appointment?
  2. What do you think is better (or worse) for kids? TV or video games?
  3. I`m interesed in getting an innotab for my kids. Are the extra downloads pricey? How is the product as a whole?
  4. Thought they were fixing the problem with the profiles? Mine is now starting to disappear and most of my friends profiles are gone. Is it getting fixed or what because its more than a joke at the moment. Maybe its the ads causing the problems because its the only thing that seems to stay when the profiles disappear.
  5. If you had a `favourable` cervix (started to dilate and soft) did a membrane sweep work for you?
  6. Should I buy my sister a Belly Bandit for her shower? She said that is what she wanted when I asked. I just have a hard time spending that much money on some thing she might niot like. Especially because it was me who put the dumb :) idea in her head!! I bought and used one for three out of my four and loved it...but is it for everyone? Or should I throw down the money to something more practical?
  7. Are your children exposed to two hours or less of TV per day? (This includes when your shows are on and they are awake and around at the same time in the same room)


  8. Just finished making a birthday cake for the first time from our baby girl for her daddys bday tomorrow :o)
  9. Extension of last Valentine question..I should clarify that we are having V-day dinner tomorrow alone but still just the fact that he bought our gifts at the same time at the same place bugs the s-it out of me. He knows I like plants and I`m pretty sure he went to a nice nursey and got me one but the fact is he told me he got his mom a small little plant. OMG I fee like I total b-tch but I feel like telling him I know what he probably got me and I do not want anything that you are giving your mom!! But then he wopuld know I snooped and saw where he went on our checking account.
  10. O.k I know this is a off the wall question..Is it weird and selfish of me to be annoyed that my husband has is giving his mom a Vanetine gift and card tonight when she comes over and wants to give me mine too today? I know I`m probably being sensitive and I feel bad that I made the comment `if you give me the same thing as your mom I`m gonna cry`. He said I should`nt ruin the surprise and I told him I was sorry but I just wanted our Valentines seperate because everything includes his family and it`s a day for lovers. Am I....
