Hosts Julia Szabo and Katrina Warren with Mr. Big.

  • Start preparing your dog a few months in advance of your baby's arrival. Play recorded baby sounds such as those on the CD Preparing Fido at a low volume for short periods of time everyday and then gradually increase.
  • Prohibit your pet's access to the nursery starting a few months before the baby is born.
  • Place dog toys in a contained area so they're separate from children's toys. Keep only a few toys outside the toy box in order to discipline your dog.
  • Avoid giving your dog any attention when she misbehaves with the new baby in the house.
  • If you need outside help, private dog training lessons range from $30-$65 per hour.
