Re: DH slapped ds last night!
Is your puppy kennel trained? Or does he have a safe zone?
Really, if he's napping - he should be put up. We used a baby gate with our first puppy we got when ds was 11 mo old.
I can tell you it's not going to be fun for the next several months. You will have to be constantly on top of both puppy & child to make sure they interact appropriately together.
However, for us, there was light at the end of the tunnel! Ds & our dog have a great relationship now. Dog is super easy going around young kids & able to withstand an accidental push & kid falling on him. Ds is better at being gentle with him too (though, still at 6yrs old, I have to get on ds about how he handles the dog sometimes).
