Videos in which <strong>those little kids that are just after arriving in the world turn into humorists unexpectedly<\/strong> thanks to situations in where the laughs come, accurately, because they\u2019re discovering the world.<\/p>\n<p>However, today in HANNIKO, we\u2019ve bumped into this endearing video of \u201cbaby and dog\u201d category that helps us, more than for having a laught to talk to you about a very interesting topic: <strong>The relationship between a baby and a newborn dog.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\"><iframe title=\"Chihuahua meets newborn\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RXq9ejN-qu8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2>The dethroned prince<\/h2>\n<p>If it\u2019s you\u2019re first baby, it\u2019s very normal that you feel worried about this moment. Until the day, your pet has been the dog and the baby of the house. In general lines, <strong>dogs and kids get along very well with each other<\/strong>, but does it also happen between dogs and new born babies?<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t worry if you feel some kind of uncertainty, it\u2019s completely normal: How is he going to react? And what if he starts barking at the baby? And if he gets nervous? And if\u2026?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15227 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-perros-y-bebes-bebe-conoce-a-perro.jpg\" alt=\"Dog and baby known each other\" width=\"870\" height=\"587\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>If the key word is \u201cchange\u201d, better of if it\u2019s for good<\/h2>\n<p>Certainly, <strong>a baby changes anyones life<\/strong>, so there is no reason to think he\u2019s not going to also change your dogs life. Here\u2019s a small trick, you can prepare improvisation: <strong>before your baby is born, start training and preparing your dog<\/strong>. Try to imagine what you\u2019re life is going to be like with this little new members arrival and so try to act accordingly to the situation.<\/p>\n<p>As in everything else in life, there\u2019s theories of all sort of tastes. <strong>Some experts recommend getting a doll for a while on the previous weeks and acting as if it was you\u2019re own baby in front of the dog<\/strong>. If in that exact moment the dog receives good things like petting, attention or even sometimes a price, the dog will associate the babys birth as something positive for his life. He will start to coexist with the idea and getting used to it.<\/p>\n<h2>Your lifes will never be the same again<\/h2>\n<p>Don\u2019t you even question it: <strong>Your life routines will change and your dogs also<\/strong>. Plan all of the possible changes you\u2019ll face a while before you give birth. Try to think how you\u2019re going to organize this new life at all levels, also counting on your dog. If you think there\u2019s going to be a drastic change for inescapable reasons, start thinking about the solution, and if posible, <strong>try to get your dog used to this new reality little by little.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15229 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-perros-y-bebes-conociendose.jpg\" alt=\"Dog and baby learning together\" width=\"870\" height=\"587\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Nice to meet you, smell<\/h2>\n<p>At the moment of deciding how to introduce a baby to a dog, there\u2019s a very interesting option. <strong>While your new born baby is still in the hospital, bring home some of his clothes so that your dog can smell it<\/strong>. One of the key points is that your pet gets familiarized as soon as possible with the new house member and if possible give him a few days so that he assimilates it.<\/p>\n<h2>The homecoming<\/h2>\n<p>If we\u2019d make a study with all of those people with dogs that have gone through this beautiful experience of coming home for the first time with the baby, it would probably look very alike of what we\u2019ve seen on the first video, father or mother with baby in arms, getting him close to their pets with special care and tranquility. Normally the reception is also usually similar: the degree of happiness can vary, but <strong>you will soon begin to feel the happy excitement of the animal\u2026 <\/strong>specially if you\u2019ve followed the tips we\u2019ve been giving you today.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\"><iframe title=\"Shiba Dog Meets Baby Brother!\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4B7fc_XB2Sk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2>Prevent jealousy<\/h2>\n<p>Having a baby, of course, doesn\u2019t mean loving your dog less. But it\u2019s logic to think that <strong>the attention you\u2019re going to give to you\u2019re baby is going to compete with the one you\u2019ve been giving to your pet until not long ago<\/strong>. It\u2019s a quantity issue that can hardly be recovered at the moment.\u00a0 That\u2019s why we recomend you to face the situation with a positive attitude: <strong>Each time, your baby, your dog and yourself are together, don\u2019t you forget about your pet and careese him evey once in a while<\/strong>. This way you will perfectly control the situation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15225 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-perros-y-bebes-acariciando-perro.jpg\" alt=\"Dog petting\" width=\"870\" height=\"498\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Play, but always be carefull<\/h2>\n<p>The most usual thing is that your dog will finally accept your baby without problems. In fact, as we have seen in the videos, <strong>many dogs have celebrated the baby arrival with pirouettes, tail whips and happiness moans<\/strong>. In a short time, they will begin to share games and experiences (and you can see them all on the internet if you search for &#8220;laughter videos of children and animals&#8221;, &#8220;dogs and babies playing&#8221;, or simply if you wait to receive a whatsapp with this kind of videos).<\/p>\n<p>Actually, <strong>the normal thing would be that whenever your dog feels the need of your trust in him, he\u2019ll probably show his love to your baby<\/strong> as soon as he is close to him. Still, remain vigilant, and if necessary train him so that he behaves himself, you can always make up a new law so that he doesn\u2019t come close to the baby when there\u2019s some danger involved.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\"><iframe title=\"Siberian Husky plays gently with baby\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-Q_5DRlgmf8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2>Role changing<\/h2>\n<p>At this moment there\u2019s not only one but thousands of dogs playing with children. It\u2019s natural, in HANNIKO we think <strong>these are two beings that have come to this world to get along with each other<\/strong>. But it is necessary to measure the time. Little by little your kid will start to grow older, going through different stages: crawling, starting to walk, talking\u2026 There will be a day when you will need to vary your sons and your dog&#8217;s safety and contrariwise, even if it\u2019s just to avoid potential accidents.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Teach your kid not to \u201cabuse\u201d on your dog<\/strong>, not to bang him, or not to pull his tail\u2026 Completely normal situations but that you must control so that you don\u2019t have unnecessary frights.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15231 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-perros-y-bebes-felicidad.jpg\" alt=\"Dog and baby having fun\" width=\"870\" height=\"482\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>The best dogs to have home with children<\/h2>\n<p>Your dog.
