Dogs and Storks Seminar September 2024

If you are expectant parents, or are new parents, and you want to proactively help your dog successfully handle this transition, this seminar is for you.

This is a humans-only seminar - so please leave your pup at home!

Potential Challenges:

Your dog will face an overwhelming number of novel sights, sounds and smells. Some of these things may be frightening, especially if your dog wasn’t socialized to them as a puppy.

Your daily routine will drastically change, which will affect your dog as well.

It can’t be helped, but your fur-baby is going to have to get a lot less attention than before, which can be difficult for everyone.

For a while, new people will be appearing in and out of your life as you transition to having your newborn come home.

This increased stress can cause behaviour problems in your dog, such as increased nuisance behaviours like barking or destructive chewing, or more serious problems like aggression directed towards your vulnerable newborn or toddler.

When Hounds Fly is proud to have Rachael Johnston, a Family Paws Parent Educator, on our team to present this crucial information.

Family Paws Parent Educators are trained to help prepare families with dogs for life with a new baby, or also to help transition when babies are soon to become crawling toddlers.
