HELP???!!
Baby will be four months old. Dog's a cocker spaniel and I'm only short so in the sling he'd be able to jump up and reach my baby's legs/bottom. Dog and baby have never met before, and the dog has NEVER been around any children of any age, let alone babies. He was castrated when younger specifically because he was aggressive and bit my dad several times - the aggression lessened afterwards but he has bitten since.
Obviously, I don't really want him in the room with my baby, full stop. Don't think my dad will agree to that though, and I don't really see how we'd manage it, given that my mum has dementia and wouldn't understand, so would just open doors as she felt like it.
He's used to going on sofas too, so would jump up quite happily if I was sitting down with the baby...
