Our dog Java just turned one. My wife is now 3 months pregnant with our first, due in Jan.

What should we be doing in preparation?
Any training?
Changing her habits?
Moving her crate?

First few nights the baby is home worth leaving the dog elsewhere (Family)?

Sorry, this is all new to me

Living with Kids and Dogs is the site for Colleen Pelar, author of "Living With Kids and Dogs... Without Losing Your Mind." I include that book as a standard recommendation whenever we get an adoption application from a family with kids, because IMO it is a great resource on the topic.

So my first suggestion would be to poke around the site and see if that looks like something you'd be interested in, and if it is, get the book.

Thanks! She is local too so that could be a great resource!
