Hiya all,
would you ever leave your trusted, loved dog alone with your baby? He seems to love her so

  • Never leave the baby alone with the dog even for a second. Dogs can become agitated by the sounds and movements of a baby. Dogs have been know to try to move a baby by carrying the baby in their mouths the way a mother dog might do with her puppies, they can cause bad injuries or even death

  • No. ALWAYS supervise pets and children together. Don’t take the risk, its not worth the fallout should something go wrong.

  • No no no. Animals are unpredictable and I’ve seen kids bitten by much loved family pets who’ve been great for years. You just can’t rely on it.

  • NO!!! If you leave them alone together, bub might unintentionally hurt your dog causing a snap reflex. You don’t want to risk any dog bites

  • Absolutely not. Regardless of the temperament of the dog this is not a good idea.

  • No way! Doesn’t matter how long you’ve had him, how good he is with baby or how much you trust him. You never leave them alone together

  • No. Never! No matter how much I trusted him.

  • Nope. Our dog is brilliant with the kids, but I wouldn’t take the risk of leaving the 2 together unsupervised. Too baby stories of things going wrong

  • No I would not. Not ever.
