WHY THIS MATTERS
Even If Your Dog Is Good, Your Baby May Still Be at Risk
A dog doesn’t have to be aggressive to become overwhelmed by a baby.
Babies crawl, grab, hug, pull, drop toys, and move unpredictably. And when your baby starts crawling, everything changes.
Failing to prepare for this moment is why, tragically, every year Mike has to tell at least 10 couples to re-home their dog. Thankfully, you don’t need to go through that.
Good Dog, Happy Baby shows you exactly what you need to do to prepare your home and dog for the coming of your newborn baby.
Most importantly, you’ll teach your dog, through a simple step-by-step process, to love and respect your little one.
There's a science to training your dog.

Prepare Your Dog Gradually
A dog who is uncomfortable with grabbing, hugging, sudden movement, or children should not be expected to simply “get used to it” once a baby arrives.
Mike teaches a gradual process called systematic desensitization: introducing difficult experiences in controlled increments, pairing them with positive associations, and helping your dog become more comfortable without overwhelming them.
Inside this course, you will learn how to:
✓ Introduce childlike handling gradually and safely.
✓ Prepare for crawling, grabbing, hugging, toys, crying, and sudden movement.
✓ Recognize discomfort before it escalates.
✓ Create safe spaces and clear household boundaries.
✓ Build positive associations between your dog and your child.
✓ Respond appropriately when your dog becomes fearful, reactive, or overwhelmed.
The goal is to help your dog feel comfortable with your baby.

Anna

“I originally purchased the course to prepare my dog for the arrival of my baby. It helped enormously. What I didn’t expect was how much it would improve my overall relationship with my dog. Our bond is closer than ever, and the bond he is developing with my baby is beautiful to see.”
Susan J.
Client
“We were six months pregnant and worried that our five-year-old Lab mix might need another home. Mike helped us address the aggression and separation-anxiety issues that concerned us using the same methods taught in this course. It was concise, practical, and filled with techniques that worked.”

A PERSONAL NOTE FROM MIKE
My Life. My Passion. A Note On Why I Created This Course
A few weeks before I created Good Dog, Happy Baby, I was sitting at my desk shaking my head in exasperation. I had just hung up with yet another couple who had decided to give up their dog three months after they had a child.
“It’s just too much,” they told me in tears. “The dog pees every time we pay attention to our baby, he runs around the house and barks at her, growls when we put her on the sofa which he’s no longer allowed on and seems to have generally gone crazy.”
When I told them what they would have to do to correct this situation they realized that with a new baby and two jobs, they simply didn’t have the time.
Sadly they gave up the dog. What was really sad was that the whole situation was entirely preventable had they started working with their dog from the day they knew they were expecting.
After receiving this phone call I decided that the time had come to start building this course. If more people had ready access to this information, I thought, perhaps there would be fewer bites and fewer dogs would be re-homed within a few months of the baby’s arrival.
With that motivation, I set out to create the Good Dog, Happy Baby video course. I have tried to cover the most important issues related to bringing a child into a home with one or more dogs in it.
There is no better time to start training your dog for the arrival of your baby than right now. My course, Good Dog, Happy Baby, gives you everything you need to get started on one of the most rewarding and satisfying experiences of your life.
I look forward to meeting you online!
