I feel sorry for the OP Ive never read such ridiclous replies over whether the dog should be put in another room whilst a baby visits

its a dog for crikes sake not another 6 month old baby

To The OP next time in this situation firmly but politely tell your family your wishes youll be respected a lot more for it

er - excuse me - but do you really go around imposing conditions on the people you visit?
Its THEIR home and their dog. If someone demanded i put my dog in another room before they would visit I would tell them not to bother. If, however they expressed concern - I would be the first one to suggest removing the dog - I used to put the cats in another room when my mum visited as I knew she had a phobia. if she dropped in unexpectedly would merely sit as far from the cat as she could, then i would take him out.
worked for me.
