How did your pet respond to the new addition?!

I have a 8 month old Boxer puppy and I often find myself wondering how will she respond to our baby once it comes home?! She is very protective, loud, and extremely hyper I hope and pray that she doesn't act a donkey or gets jealous when she meets her... She can also be the most loving caring animal u have ever met in your life! I have 4 months til I find out.  Do any of yall have a story on this topic?! If so please feel free to share!!!

See at first she was very gentle with me then she started getting a lil rough... but now she likes to stand and hug around my waist and kiss my stomach so I'm sure she knows something is in there... She's a pretty big puppy... 2 of my huge fears is that she gets nervous and starts barking in the baby's face trying to figure out why she is so little and that she thinks shes a toy...

Your dog will probably only sniff your baby, you should be fine :)

I have 2 pit bulls & a k-9 mix, they all protect my belly, lol
