Dog Training for New Parents in Fort Worth, TX
Cribs and canines offers dog training programs for new and expecting parents in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Infants and Dogs: Dog Training for New Parents
A lot of our clients are dog owners who are also parents, or are looking to be parents in the near future. Like owning a dog, being a parent is an ENORMOUS responsibility. So how does one make sure that being a dog owner and parent will work out, where both dog and baby can live together peacefully, with no troubling incidents?
This is why the Cribs and Canines training program was established – to guide owners/parents into creating a consistent structure that their family pet can succeed in, both before and after the baby arrives.
Through this, our Dallas and Fort Worth dog trainers will also build a solid foundation for the dog so that when the baby comes, the transition to the inevitable new changes goes swimmingly, where no anxiety or aggression comes into play.
Prepare Your Dog for the Baby Comes Home
Our trainers will still follow their incomparable reward-based training techniques, but will customize it to suit your needs, family, lifestyles, and training goals. Cribs and Canines will teach your dog how to be happy with the idea of a new baby in the home, even before the human baby is born.
The basic obedience and manners (ie: no jumping, aggressive play, nipping, etc) will be covered, instilling reliable recall from your dog, and also sharpening the trust and respect among all family members. Additionally, to help prepare the dog, our trainers will expose and desensitize the dog to very specific experiences (ie: walking well next to the stroller, behaving when the baby is being held or crawling around the house, etc). Every moment is a trainable moment where our trainers will set you and your family up for success!
This program is not only for newborn babies, it can be for any baby or child. Even toddler parents! Our goal is to keep both dogs and childrden of all ages safe and coexisting peacefully.
Learn How Introduce Your Dog in the First Few Days
Lots of dogs do just fine when their owners bring a baby home, but your dog may struggle as well. It’s important to be preapred for that. Our dog training for new parents program will help you prep your dog for the arrival of the baby while also teaching you how to allow your dog time away from the baby. We’ll utilize baby gates, crates and more to allow the dog a safe space.
When you train with Heart of Texas Dog Training we make sure you understand how your dog is feeling and teach your dog how to associate the baby with good things. When you first bring your baby home there will lots of new baby sounds, smells and schedule changes. Our professional dog trainers will talk to you about when to let your dog sniff the baby and investigate the baby and all of the new stuff that comes with them.
