my dog

I don't know if a dog can know that your pregnant but my dog acts funny from time to time she's 2 and she will act like a complete  baby I can't take it my bfn doesn't live with me & he feels as though the dog can protect me & my daughter but she's becoming to much for me to handle I don't want to put her in the pound she's a good dog but I just don't know if ill be able to do a 7 year old a newborn & a needy dog he says jus keep her a couple more weeks until he moves to his new apt. But after today  I just don't know she's a big all American bulldog & she just a lot to handle

I have a male Pomeranian.. He is super clingy to me. When my BF leaves for work he will move from the foot of the bed to where BF was then lay against my back... He always wants to touch me. If I'm sitting on the couch, laying in bed, or sitting at the kitchen table, he is right there laying against me. I don't know if he knows I'm pregnant but he is being a good boy. I have a problem with my cat. She is the aggressive one and she doesn't want to be touched by me anymore or anythin It kind of makes me want to cry because I love my cat..

Dogs sense our hormone changes. They say after 20weeks they can even hear the baby's heart beat. That's why dogs and sometimes cats become obsessed with us during pregnancy.

My bfn said when he moves into his new place he will let her come stay for awhile so she & I can take a break from each other. I would never give her to the pound I love her to much I just get overwhelmed cuz its just me most times she really my second baby lol i think she knows she's having a lil brother & is going thru something with not being the baby anymore lol but sometime with her dad (my bfn) is very much needed for us both

I have a VERY needy pitbull. She's just about a year old but no matter how needy she is I wouldn't consider taking her to the pound. Dogs are family too. The only way you should ever consider getting rid of an animal for a baby is if it becomes a risk to have it. I told my boyfriend although I love my pitty and she is very attached to me she only has one time to snap or growl at my baby.

Mine is a puppy (7 mos) and is already huge! He like hates me. Whenever i go around or even try to talk to my husband he gets between us and starts wining and wanting him to pet him. At first we just ignored it but the ither day i just went to my hub and poked him in the arm and the dog went crazy and growled at me! But just today i was in bed and reading and he jumped up, put his head on my belly amd just layed there like that for 3 hours. It was weird. I feel like he finally heard his heart and was like whoa i gotta be nice to this

I wouldnt get rid of your dog bc you dont think you can handle a dog and a baby. Once that baby is born it will most likely want to be around the baby than you.
