Fostering Relationships Between Dogs & Children

In this episode, Jennifer Shyrock discusses how we can increase safety and reduce stress in homes with young children and family dogs.

Jennifer Shyrock is the owner and founder of Family Paws, which supports new and expecting families in balancing dog and baby/toddler dynamics. She is also a certified dog behavior consultant, and worked as a special education teacher - so she knows a thing or two about dogs and kids!

Adding a dog to a young family (or adding a baby to a family with a dog) can be overwhelming and stressful. Jennifer teaches us what mistakes new families often make, and what we can do to ensure that the transition into a new family life is a smooth one.
