Puppies & a New Born
How hard is it for those of you that have a puppy and a new born? I'm 38 weeks and really thinking about getting a puppy.
I would wait on a puppy. Have a puppy and a newborn at the same time is like having twins. Plus puppies don't listen to well and I would be worried about the puppy hurting the baby.i would wait till your newborn is at least crawling. My sis had her baby only a week after getting a puppy and if it's not the puppy crying then it's the baby. A newborn is enough work on its own.
I have a 3 month old pit and she frustrates me because she doesn't listen to me, I'm trying to potty train her, and I get extremely frustrated easily being pregnant. I'm 22 weeks, but honestly she is just like my other baby I wouldn't trade her for anything!
Oh yeah it's hard, i have a 8 month old doberman puppy and he's a rough lil boy is strong sometimes wants to pull me down the stairs. He gets fustrating because he doesn't listen all the time. Definitely like a child lol but i wouldn't trade him for anything he's my other baby(: I'm just nervous for when my son gets here because he can be rough at times..
It hard im 11 weeks pregnant and I have a puppy, vets are expensive I had to pay 1600 just cuz he had a flu and was having trouble breathing but just like any other future mom id like my baby to have a puppy to care for him

Plus, that's a lot of money too, vet bills, shots, food, toys, bedding, and then lots of time and attention with training. Plus picking up after the dog...it's like having another baby.
I'm 17wks with a 4 month puppy, it's still hard, i don't think he will even be trained enough when the baby is here.
