Can any dog pro give me advice? I just had a baby 3 weeks ago and my dog is so obsessed with baby it’s driving me to the point of insanity. She just stares at her and constantly cries and barks at her, she won’t leave us alone. She keeps jumping up on her in her swing and is becoming possessive over her. Our dog is a 5 year old 7lb mini dachshund and has had behaviour problems with before with biting and resource guarding, I fear this is what might happen with our baby girl. For contact, our dog is very good with her and gentle, she just wants to play/profect her I think? I have tried showing our baby to her many times, letting her sniff her (she is very good with this) and when she tries to jump on her swing I have removed the dog, spoken sternly to her and also sprayed with water (that did not go well). I don’t know what else to do, please help if anyone can! My post partum brain is struggling so much with this.
