I'm a dog trainer - here's one thing you should NEVER do to your pup in front of your baby
Briefly

As families expand with new babies, dog trainer Shir emphasizes the importance of teaching pet owners about safety around dogs. She highlights a serious concern: children often mimic adult behaviors and may unintentionally provoke a dog when they see them receiving affection. Shir warns that actions like kissing a dog can encourage children to imitate this behavior, which could lead to dangerous situations, as dogs may perceive a child's close affection as a threat. Her directive is clear: keep certain interactions private from observing children for their safety and the pet's well-being.
