The dog reacts badly to the child: growls, barks, bites. What to do?
Good afternoon. My name is Veronika Voitovska. I am a zoopsychologist. Doctor. Owner of the kennel of large serious dog breeds (American pitbull terriers and American bullies) «Dognik Bulls». Judge of dog shows in Europe. Judge of sports competitions for dogs.
There are currently 15 adult dogs in my kennel (10 pitbull terriers and 5 American bullies). I know everything about raising dogs and children together. My daughter is now 1 year old. Also, our 8 neighboring children regularly walk and communicate with our adult dogs and puppies.
I can teach you to control your dog or puppy when communicating with children of any age. Most often, people turn to me for advice with the question: «how to introduce a newborn child and an adult dog?» Often adult dogs that have lived their entire lives in love and were the only ones in the family, begin to be jealous of a newborn child. This manifests itself in nervous behavior near the child. Dogs worry, fidget, chew their tails, scratch themselves. Some dogs begin to growl at the child, watch him with an unkind look. This behavior must be eliminated immediately. I help introduce the child to the dog, relieve the dog of stress, help the dog understand that the child is now part of life. The sooner you begin to solve the problem of the dog’s behavior with a newborn child, the easier it will be for you, the child and the dog.
If you are pregnant, I congratulate you. You can already start preparing the dog for the birth of the child. This is also an important stage, accustoming the dog to the screams of children, to strong smells (diapers), to getting up at night. I have my own original system of accustoming the dog to reduce stress when a child is born. So that the dog does not growl, bark, bite the child in the future. I also help solve problems of relationships between very active children and dogs. When children jump on a dog, pull its ears and the dog, accordingly, gives a response.
Therefore, if you want to properly introduce a child and a dog, write to me for a consultation. The cost of one consultation is 50 euros. It takes place online via video link.
