When dog owners have a baby, there is always a certain level of risk involved.
Therefore, you need to build your relationship with your pet correctly so that it does not get angry at the new family member.
If you understand the potential causes of aggression, you can eliminate them without much difficulty.
What are the two most common reasons?
The dog does not understand why people stopped paying attention to it
Don't forget that a dog is a social creature that needs your attention and approval. If the dog used to spend time with you all the time, and now you "forgot" about it, it may think that the child is to blame.
For this reason, the animal will become angry and show signs of aggression, experts note.
Child protection

This approach is fraught with the risk of children offending the pet.
Some dogs can tolerate this and give children a "break". But some dogs will try to protect themselves.
