Diapers and Dogs

Dogs and babies can be a successful combination with a little preparation and some good management strategies. This is a stroller class for new parents and babies (up to six months old, non-mobile) and soon-to-be-parents. We offer a safe environment for dogs to become more comfortable with the newest members of their family.

Dogs of any age are welcome, with proof of current vaccinations. Dogs will learn basic manners such as lying quietly while baby is being fed, not jumping on baby and walking nicely next to the stroller. Parents will learn the basics of managing dog and baby interactions as well as practical obedience commands that won't add more time and stress to a new parent's busy day.
