Do you think this photo is real..........

It could be just slightly "staged" but nothing surprises me with dogs and babies they do tend to gravitate towards each other,obviously there is an adult present.

I hope the adult stays present tbh! Bit worrying.

Baby and puppy growing up together - good idea, as long as they don't share teething rings.

The baby's got a very long arm...

I don't think the baby's arm is actually around the dog, just the sleeve pulled across - looks cute though.

Most probably real and for me very worrying. Dogs and babies are a big no no in my book.

Agree Harrigran.

I agree with Ana and Barrow...the sleeve appears adjusted to suggest a cuddle. The dog is a puppy. It would be nice to think that the two will grow up together and no harm will be done to the child. However, as a parent, I would never take the risk.

I have a similar photo of DD1 and a labrador puppy that we bred. Obviously they were not left alone together. Puppies and babies can grow up very happily together providing there is supervision at all times.
