This baby was raised by 5 German shepherds, and now she thinks she's a dog! She tries to eat their food, carries toys in her mouth, and even walks like them. Now she's got 5 best friends for life.

There was a family in my neighborhood when I was growing up that had four teenage sons and one young surprise daughter. That daughter was the most pampered, protected girl in the world. Her brothers would do anything for her. On Christmas Eve one year, they waited until she went to bed and then built a two-story tall snowman that she would see when she looked out her 2nd story bedroom window in the morning. It was impressive, as were the ramps they had to make to get those top snowballs on. Anyway, this reminds me of that family. No one is messing with that little girl.

Well give them a few years and they won't have an issue on tiring out the baby for naps and the doggos will need a little less exercise from the parents. And if they have a 2nd or maybe even a 3rd kid that's less and less exercise from the parents as the kids can have more play time with the doggos.

Every kid should grow up around animals, It teaches their young minds so much about companionship and empathy. Both of my daughters grew up around cats and dogs and now they have their own.
To be honest I think she is safer with those 5 dogs than she would be with some humans. We have 8 dogs and they are fantastic.

They clearly love their dogs but they don’t let that love blind them to the dangers of having a baby around dogs (unattended). I like how they slowly, over the course of several months introduced the baby to the dogs and how they never leave the baby alone with the dogs. Responsible parenting.

Not to mention letting the baby eat the dog food and drink their water as she films.
"We never leave her alone with the dogs," wise words, even if they are German Shepherds, baby safety is always first and you always got to remember that dogs are dogs, and in a pack can be even more doggish. Love also mom admits with grumpy senior dog that not every dog gets along with kids.

Yep, and German Shepherds are unpredictable. One of my friends has a scar on her arm from a Shepherd that belonged to a family she used to babysit for. Had what she thought was a great relationship with the dog until one day it just aggressively latched onto her arm and wouldn't let go. She ended up in the emergency room. Seeing an infant surrounded by 5 Shepherds is a little frightening tbh............

So, we see she survived up to this point but, who's pushing their luck hope child or dogs don't EVER have a bad day.

I've owned dogs my whole life, and I can tell you from personal experience that this is true. When dogs get old enough, they become lazy and complacent. However, my 4 year old-GSD seems to take his job very seriously, especially at night. He seems to follow me around wherever I go.

Plus she knows each of the dogs personalities to the point where one is to be kept away as she's older and a bit grumpy. Great mum.
We just welcomed a rescue German Shepherd into our home and she has bettered our lives exponentially! Feels like we hit the jackpot of awesome pups...💕 Edit: Since there was some confusion about this, our rescue isn't a puppy, she's 6 years old and our's is her 4th (and final) home. I just refer to dogs as "pups" from time to time. I apologize for any misunderstanding my use of that term may have caused.

I was raised with a cat named Snowball. He passed away when I was three. He was an old cat before I was born. I remember him very well. He use to cuddle with me while I took naps and he sat at my feet when I ate at the table. He also followed me outside when I played in the yard. I remember putting my black too too on him and he sat proud and winked at me when I looked at him. He loved setting with me in my tiny kid car and we dug holes in the backyard together. My mom had to bathe him because he would get in the mud with me.
This is pure heaven she will always have these knights in shining fur watching over her.
Trust me, NOONE will ever come close to harming that baby girl if those dogs are around. They would kill anyone trying to hurt her. Mans best friend indeed. They’re wonderful companions

As someone who was raised with dogs, I find this absolutely adorable and amazing! Yes her immune system is going to be amazing! Her mother has a lot of work on her hands I must say but she is doing such a remarkable job. It is a good way to teach children to be emphatic, kind, loving and gentle regardless of specie.
She's a contender for the world's happiest, SAFEST baby in the world! 😂❤👍
Little Ethan grew up with ruff ruff. They hold hands running around the table. Yes the baby's hand is in the dog's mouth as they run around the table. So gentle too
That picture with her in the seat with the dogs surrounding her. Her face says it all like you don't want no smoke 😂
I really respect the way you include the dogs but you aint stupid about it.thats the way to controll strong dogs massive respect from Bideford
She fits so perfectly with the pack! 💖💖
I love this so much, as someone who grew up in a house full of animals and now continuing to rescue and foster animals My household from growing to now has never had less than 6 fur babies and it just warms my heart
This is the BEST childhood one can EVER have I swear!!!
I fully support the idea of raising children with animals. Both for joy and the good teaching it can give on how to be kind and empathetic. I remember my first dog, Tubby, an old Irish setter that hated gunshots. Anyway, I grew up with Tubby till I was about 7 and was there for his twilight years. I loved him and his gentleness but just as important; I saw how he could no longer keep up with I, the other kids, or any of the younger dogs we took in. Was probably the first real lesson I had on what growing old actually meant and that death was natural. Was glad to have him in my life and glad in hindsight on the lessons he could teach me.
I'm impressed- that kid's developing so well. I'm amazed that she is okay with 5 German Sheperds. I can tell she's gonna be leading a good life.
She is like having 5 big brothers!

So cute how River goes to the cages and lets them out whenever she wants 😂😂❤❤
I love it when toddlers do something they aren't supposed to but then just look at you and smile! River letting the dogs out and then staring up at her mom before closing the gate was so precious!
They are just the sweetest dogs ever. The affection large dogs have for tiny humans is precious.
Beautiful to see! 🥰♥️ She has five older siblings that will protect her and watch her and love her every day 🥰♥️🐕❤️
the white and brown dog at 2:21 is how I'm with babies too. very relatable
I was told that i as a toddler loved to sleep with our dog in his dog house, and followed him always around, so somewhat relatable. My parents got our dog as a puppy as I was 6 months old, they came to the conclusion that I was just another playmate for him. Later, as he was bigger than me, he was super protective of me.
She is going to have a strong immunity system 🤣🤣 too 🥰

We just rescued a beautiful german shepherd/mastiff mix for Christmas. She’s a blessing!!!
I recently lost a boxer/shepherd mix named Marley last year. It was very hard (cancer sucks). My kids were raised around him. We went to a dog park one day and another dog started to jump on my youngest daughter trying to nip and Marley rushes over and charges the other dog and stands in-between them. He was like, "That's my sister you're messing with." My daughter was a little annoyed that the owner did nothing but that's some people for you. Anyway, shepherds are so loyal and fierce. But I'm glad mama never leaves her unattended with them. I'd go a little further and pick up those dog bowls with food and only put them down when it's time to eat. They can choke on the kibble. I was constantly picking up kibble all over our kitchen after Marley ate when my daughters were little.
Clearly she's the one who let the dogs out
German Shepards are amazing! Loyalty,Protective and Gentle!
I just loved this video! Finally I found a parent who understands that slopping around with a dog will not cause a trip to the ER!! You have done a stupendous job with River and your pups. What a beautiful way to bring up a child! I commend you!!
I dont think stranger danger will will ever apply due to five dogs.... LoL love this

I was raised with a very smart collie. My mom trusted her enough to leave me with her for short times.

My family had German Shepherds so of course, they're my favorite. Had one named "Lady" that taught me how to treat and not treat diggs as a toddler/small child. I learned that they don't like having their tails pulled (common sense for anything other than a toddler) but they love gentle pets, hugs, and treats. She allowed me to hold her babies and she was very protective of us kids. I was the youngest and I kinda feel like she treated me like one of her pups - she definitely knew I was a child. Miss her so much. 🥰
