Dog Hides Under Crib When Baby Cries

You have a ten week old so to your terrier, this is still a new thing. He is nervous and doesn't know what to make of it. When you came home with the baby, did you introduce baby #1 to canine baby #1? It's great that you let him into the nursery. Keep a close eye, but let your terrier get accustomed to the new surroundings and atmosphere. Once baby #1 is asleep, don't forget to cuddle canine baby and let him know it's ok. You might want to give your terrier a less used baby blanket with baby's scent on it so he can familiarize himself to the new addition.

Hi D.
It seems like your dog is concerned about the baby.... my dogs cant fit under the crib, but when the baby cries and she's in her swing, they lay underneath it. Your puppy isnt scared, or else he would pick a place FAR away from where the crying is taking place. It sounds like you are witnessing the beginning of a BEAUTIFUL friendship!

i have an almost 2-year-old girl and a 4-year-old newf. maybe he's being protective and waits for him to be okay(i.e. not crying) before he leaves the room.

Very cute... Your little dog is doing what they are born to do instinctively -- PROTECT!
