Same concept. We also played this a few times because we THOUGHT it would get her used to crying but really it just provided us much entertainment in the form of which directions Weezie’s ears would move when listening to this: http://beprepared.net/tools_cryingbaby.html

Have your husband bring one home (preferably BEFORE you two come home from the hospital) after Baby Boy has been hanging out in it. Let the dog smell it, leave it on the floor, whatever. This will help the dog get used to the scent so he doesn’t charge at the baby like, “What’s this new thing?” with too much enthusiasm. My parents did this with Evan and he and their dog have generally been fine since day one. (The dog was unimpressed with the 2am crying, but fair enough, right?)

Now that I am typing this, it sounds so lame. Did I really do that!?!? Yep…we did.

I’m not pregnant yet, but I already worry what Charlie will do around a baby. He’s very much a one-woman dog and did not deal well with the addition of his sister (shelter mutt mystery breed). I’m talking spiteful peeing on any of my stuff that was on the floor by a dog who never has accidents.

I watched an episode of It’s Me or the Dog on Animal Planet and they said you have to gradually introduce them to dolls and the sound of crying so they don’t freak and try to protect you from it. You also have to be clear that it’s not their job to guard the baby and make sure to feed then in isolation when the kid is crawling around.

This is my precious (and his sister): http://cardiganjunkie.blogspot.com/2010/04/sneak-peek.html
