@bjeff, ☹ I forgot all about that! I live in the blazing desert of California. But the heat here is just as bad! Even at night...my baby is almost sleeping through the night as well. There's a lot of pro's & cons to this decision :( like I think about getting a little dog but I'm leaning towards a bigger bread but big breed pups go through teething as well and chew on everything.

@jennatess, Thank you! Yes my doggies have forever homes with me lol my oldest pug has been with me since he was 2 months and is now 6 years old. What I would like is for my daughter to have a dog companion by her side as she grows up. What I'm also trying to make decision on is whether I should get her a smaller breed or a breed that grows a good size

We got a puppy when our son was 10 months old and had just started sleeping through the night so it was Awful bc I finally got little man to sleep through the night and then I had to wake up with a stinking dog!! plus it was winter so it made is miserable taking the puppy potty.

if you're getting up now throughout the night with baby I say go for it unless you live some where really cold I would say wait a little bit so it's not such a pain to get puppy to go out and potty.

Also, rememebr puppy's can be just as exhausting to raise and train as babies..just know it will be double the work

good luck

It can be a handful, but no different than twins - and people do that all the time! 😁. I think it's a great idea, as long as it's a forever home for the doggie and the classes are a wonderful idea!
