We hope to show that not only can you successfully integrate a baby into your life with your dog(s), but that pit bulls and babies are not such a bad combination after all. <br /><br />I liked reading another person's perspective. Almost none of the blogs I read in which people have babies and dogs have discussed how they get by or how they prepared their dog(s). Or, they do relegate their dogs to the basement, which is so sad. I love seeing the pictures of adorable Lily with little Amelia. What could be better than having your child grow up with that companion?Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14310521653862222270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-13289006528511261632012-07-11T21:01:54.739-05:002012-07-11T21:01:54.739-05:00I think the people who say that the dogs "go ...I think the people who say that the dogs "go to the basement" really never had their dogs as their babies. That being said you would always want to give your animals the opportunity to eaise into this new way of life. Not only with dogs but with cats to. My Cookie Dough would wonder what the new thing in the room was & why she was not being pet. This is a great post! I'm glad to see people incorporating their pets into raising a child! I hope to do that some day!Keri @ Trinitys Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01448749926603459216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-80478180056373237832012-07-11T08:51:56.552-05:002012-07-11T08:51:56.552-05:00super helpful... kids are in the plans for us at s...super helpful... kids are in the plans for us at some point... thanks so much for sharing your experience and how it worked for you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-34966711290690484992012-07-10T14:43:56.956-05:002012-07-10T14:43:56.956-05:00This is such an important subject as I have spoken...This is such an important subject as I have spoken with so many people who seem to think that babies and dogs can't and shouldn't mix. Clearly this is very untrue as many families are formed with a combination of children and animals and all works out just fine.

Since we have got Mugsy we routinely mess with him while he is sleeping. Pulling on his tail, ears, his awkwardly long tounge, anything that we felt a small child would do. Now he is immune to this torture and I feel confident he would not react to a child doing the same.Taylor Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618004239737061565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-3709311884926724642012-07-10T11:30:43.113-05:002012-07-10T11:30:43.113-05:001.

I am kinda of scared of bringing a baby in to the house because Maize hasn't really been around kids and loud noises scare her. Your post was super helpful and calmed my nerves (not that a baby is coming any time soon BUT it's always good to know tips)Froggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14339949515798604730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-91959470167694209052012-07-10T11:30:04.451-05:002012-07-10T11:30:04.451-05:00What great people--they really put in the time and...What great people--they really put in the time and effort to make sure the transition was easy for Lily. A bit of extra work, but then, anyone who is averse to extra work should probably not be having a baby! I wish every expecting family would prioritize existing family members' needs in this way.Kirsten (peacefuldog)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17157607807509631485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-87095731416826545272012-07-10T10:05:32.177-05:002012-07-10T10:05:32.177-05:00Perfect timing!

It is so sad to hear of all these people giving up their dogs and all because a baby has arrived. What a positive message. I think that just like with lily, with proper introductions and lots of research it doesn't have to be a bad experience.
