A. if the child does not have any type of allergy to the dogs as well as the dog is vaccinated then there should not be any problem but yes proper observation and vigilance needs to be present when the dog is around

A. Hello dear parent! There shouldn’t be any problem as long as you are able to maintain a good personal hygiene for your baby. Keep removing the dog’s hair that has fallen around as it might cause some discomfort in your baby. Continue to exclusively breastfeed. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug daily massage oil.
