    Make lost posters, bring it to the vet to make sure it doesn't have a chip.. crate train the dog so it will stop pooping in the house... there is a good book about this kind of thing, I need to find the title for you

    We did we asked all our neighbors nd nothing, but its like in a way i wanna keep the puppy but its annoying picking up after him, then it scares me if my son is just attached to him nd out of nowere someone claims him, i might just have to suck it up for my son

    Aw thats so tuff, maybe try putting the dog outside during most of the day on a runner. Maybe when baby actually comes he will like playing with the baby more and understand you can no longer care for a dog....have you tried an easier pet to care for, like fish or a hamster? I got my 5 yr old both, he loves them all, and its easier to take care of...good luck, I hope everything works out

    We got a dog two weeks before I found out I was pregnant! Wish I had known before hand because now there is going to be four people and a dog in a small upstairs two bedroom apartment Haha ya

    I know that ur in a hard situation, I couldnt stand to break my little ones heart :( but honestly the good thing about him bring so young is it is much easier for ypu to get them to think the same way as you, there opionions aren't as strong as say an 8 yr olds. Try explaining that the new baby is his baby too, tell him how much ur going to need his help, and then actually have him help with little things once baby comes along, like having him get the diaper when the baby needs to be changed, etc.. Take advantage of this time too while its just you and him still, have him help pick out baby things, or decorate a baby book together,and I def recommend you get him a big brother present to give him once babies born

    Ur welcome, I know how your feeling. My son means the world to me and I would do anything for him, I hate to see him sad, it just breaks my heart, so I know how you must feel, and btw I admire your love you have for your son. You truly take his feelings into consideration and put him first. sadly, some mothers do not. I hope things go smoothly for all of you
