Hello everyone, and welcome back to a brand new episode of Dog Sense! 🙌
Let me ask you a question: Does your dog get along with children?
If your answer was a resounding "no", then this episode is for you, especially if you’re a parent. 👊
You can't simply introduce children to a dog and hope everything goes smoothly. 🤷
Not only do you have to teach your children to be safe around dogs, but you also have to build tolerance for kids in your dog.
And friends, both of these things take time, patience, and a lot of vigilance! 💪
But don't worry, because we're here to help!
Today, Sarah and I will be sharing our tips and tricks, so tune in now! 🤩
