Would you restrict your dog/cat to come near your newborn?

It really depend. I have sensitive nose, so my kids tends to have too. And my jack russell fur drop like crazy. He just need to shake his butt and fur can seem dropping around. And my dog have this on off eating his own poo problems, hence i have make sure he didn't ate his own poo before he went kissing my kids. Anyway, the kids auto love to play with him, in fact they know when they don't want to eat their food, where should they bring it to.. To the dog
