Dogs are a part of many families and it's important we remember their needs as we raise our children alongside of them.

On this episode, I welcome Michelle. She is a mother, certified professional dog trainer, and founder of Pooch Parenting. She helps families navigate many issues to create a healthy relationship between dogs and kids. Here are some of the questions we discuss: 

• What can families do to prepare their dog for the arrival of a new baby?
• What are some of the biggest mistakes new parents make when acclimating their dog to a new baby?
• What are some worrisome signs in a dog that they may not be acclimating well to the arrival of a new baby?
• Is licking a baby okay?
• How can we teach a child to gently interact with dog?
• Where do we start with dog barking?
• How can I best prevent dog bites?
