I have a lab pup and it has put a few people off but I've just had an enquiry for a baby and the mum was really pleased that i had a pup the same age as her baby "they can grow up together"
Delilah does have the kitchen as her room though. she does spend the day with us and as they are all well supervised i wouldn't dream of making her stay on her own for 11 hours. I make parents aware of how Delilah is put in the kitchen during meal times and for the baby to have time on the floor etc (if she signs) but as i wont be leaving the baby on the floor all day, i see no reason to enforce solitary confinement for the poor little thing - sure fire way of turning her in to a major handful
You will get those that don't like pets and those that do. There are those that don't like them but still want their children to have contact with them.
I always mention my pets on the first contact to save any wasted time - i cannot stand it when people cower away from my animals as thought they might maul them so I'd rather just rule them out. It is still my home and my animals are my babies too. Very much adored and completely part of our home and lifestyle....
Good luck x
What's for you, wont pass by you
