Alyssa Milano and her husband are eagerly awaiting the arrival of their first child, a son, but they aren’t the only ones getting ready for baby. The actress says her dogs are anticipating the new bundle as well.
She reveals:
“We know that they know already, especially my Australian shepherds, because they kind of sniff at my belly obsessively.”
The star has two Australian Shepherds, two Chihuahuas and a German Shepherd named Dodger, Diesel, Lucy, Gibson and Quixie, plus 10 horses — all getting prepped for the new baby.
“We have everyone in training right now, and we’re going to start working with an empty carriage because I walk my dogs every day by myself. I want to be able to do that and the baby at the same time. Everyone keeps telling me to make sure after I give birth to get that [first] blanket that they wrap the baby in and to have someone bring it home before we get there so the dogs can smell it.”
The soon-to-be mom is already a mom of sorts — a godmother, that is, to Scooby-Roo, a two-legged rescue dog who was able to get a new set of wheels thanks to Milano.
“I’m his fairy godmother ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ his fairy dogmother. We get updates probably once a month and his rehab is going really well, and he’s adjusting to his wheels.”
