first, some canine guidance
Teach your dog to stay away from the nursery.

If he's never encountered any, gently introduce babies into his life. He will be considerably less likely to experience anxiety around your newborn if he is introduced to her gradually.
Determine his level of education.
Your dog must behave as the adult in this setting because a baby's behavior is unpredictable. If your dog won't listen to you, you must begin training it before the baby is even born. If you haven't already, now is a terrific time to neuter your male dog. As a result, the dog ought to become more cool-headed and gracious.
The cat comes next.
Cats can also benefit from some of the same ideas, albeit it can be more difficult to teach them to leave a space. By the way, they can easily scale baby gates and cribs. Therefore, it makes sense to purchase a baby gate to keep the cat out along with a net to cover the crib. If your cat sleeps with you at night, avoid putting the baby in the bed with them.
Keep the child away from the water and food dishes for both types of pets. Babies adore playing with them and making a mess, which could make the animal even more envious. Your youngster will eventually try to eat the pet food if he can access it. I vowed.
There shouldn't be any issues with your youngster and your dogs getting along. Your home should remain happy as long as you exercise caution while waiting for everyone to feel at comfortable.
