Prepare Your Dog For Your New Baby

Mike Wombacher draws on decades of professional dog-training experience to help you understand what your dog needs, which behaviors require attention, and how to establish a calmer, safer household for everyone. 

You’ll learn how to use gradual desensitization to prepare your dog for crawling, grabbing, hugging, crying, toys, sudden movement, and other childlike handling; recognize discomfort before it escalates; create safer routines, spaces, and household boundaries; build positive associations between your dog and child; and respond appropriately when your dog becomes fearful, reactive, or overwhelmed.
