Keep them separated and there will be no problem. It's bad enough this dog has to deal with a baby in the house, and then you want to rehome HIM because his home is disrupted? I really dislike people like you, OP, and feel so sad for your pets every time I read a post like this. No forever home after all!

And you sound like you have a very eff'd up set of priorities.

Agreed. The baby is more important, no matter how much you love your dog.

I'm the PP you both are responding to, and I feel they are equal. You can't bring a living being into your home and then displace it after x time for reasons that are not its fault. I don't think that makes me "eff'd up" [sic] at all.

NP. A dog bit me in the face when i was a young child, which resulted in lots of stitches. You dont want to take any chances - i definitely recommend rehoming asap.

Your priorities are wrong. Baby is number one. Period. Baby's safety trumps dog's comfort every single time. This is a non negotiable.

My priorities are exactly right for me. Baby adapts into everyone's (including pets) pre-existing life, not the other way around. The baby is the newcomer.

Wow, PP, you DO have screwed-up priorities.

I am a huge dog lover, have always had dogs in my life, but if I was in a situation where the choice was saving a stranger child or my dog, I'd pick the child every single time. Dogs are not people.

I guess that will be where we differ.

Yikes. You are a scary person.

Get rid of the dog.

She's doesn't love her dog. A person who loves their dog wouldn't drop him/her at a shelter for a "death sentence" as OP stated.

You can do this the right way OP- the caring and compassionate way- but my gut says you're looking for the quickest/cheapest/easiest way out.

I always try to be respectful of another person's thread, but this one just hit too close to the heart.

Why do pets always seem to get the short end of the stick?? When all is said and done, they are the ones who end up having to go when a new situation arises, marriage, babies, etc.

Once you adopt a pet, you agree to give it a forever home. Any decisions you make after that should revolve around your pet since the pet was there first.

I truly cannot stand people who get rid of their pets just because. It angers me like nothing else.

You need to SCREAM at the dog when he growls at the baby. He will get the message. I'd rather you dropped your baby off at a shelter than your dog, though.

I'm a PP, and I agree with you. It's disgusting.

Yup. OP you need to get some courage and train your dog properly. Don't take the coward's path.

The baby and the dog ate equal. Period. The baby should be kept in its crib until he is trained how to act appropriately around dogs.

OMG you dog people are truly nuts. Crazy. The dog goes... find a new home. Lots of rescues in this area. It makes me wonder how you folks were raised with such odd priorities. It's an ANIMAL. OP please don't listen to this crap. You take care of your baby. Read the thread about the woman and husband who have both been attacked by their dog AND still have the dog in their house with a baby/toddler because the husband would be sad.
