A moving encounter
Kelly and her husband Rocky welcomed a baby named Capri. The meeting between the baby and their dog was moving, as relayed by our colleagues at Animal Channel, in an article published on January 20, 2023.
The couple has three dogs: Flip, Zoe and Kobe. The latter is blind and requires more attention than the others. Furthermore, his health was not the best. A few days before Capri’s birth, the dog had undergone heart surgery. When the baby arrived home, Kobe was still recovering from his surgery.

To introduce Capri to his four-legged friends, Rocky has the ingenious idea of making all his dogs smell his daughter’s blanket, to get them used to this new smell. The couple called the dogs one by one, so as not to frighten the baby. When Kobe’s turn came, Kelly and her husband were worried regarding his reaction. Being blind, he might have had a different reaction than his canine companions. But, as soon as Kobe smelled the new smell, he calmly lay down on the ground next to the blanket, which allayed his owners’ fears.

When his owners brought Capri into the room, Kobe was hesitant, but he chose to trust his family. He slowly approached Capri, and as soon as he realized that she was his new sister, he gently placed his head on her body, showing her deep affection.

The video shared by the couple moved Internet users. Rocky wanted to remind his subscribers that his dogs must always maintain a certain distance from Capri. They certainly welcomed her, but it is important that they do not approach her at will, especially during this period of adaptation. This is an essential measure to ensure the safety of the child as well as her well-being.
