Solo: All Things Dog

In this solo episode, I dive into all things dog-related: how we decided it was the right time to get a dog, what the adoption and training process looked like, and how we introduced our dog, Charlie, to our newborn baby in a safe and controlled way. I discuss the importance of knowing when you’re ready to adopt a dog, how I came across our adoption shelter, and what the learning curve was like once we had our new puppy. I also discuss why dogs are a good test for having a child with your partner, how Charlie reacted to the baby at first and what their dynamic has been through the years, and how Charlie and my relationship shifted throughout my pregnancy and after having a child.
