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.

This kid will have the world's strongest immune system!! 😂
I can imagine playing with and tasting their water bowl is very hygienic 🤣
Yup and less prone to allergies and developing asthma
Or any other millions of kids from the third world.......
Yet dogs hardly get sick compared to humans
@@camus25555😂 yeah and parasites yuck
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.
Wow that's amazing
If I ever met her, I’m calling her Roller Brawl. That story sounds like a character of that name.
Cap
@@tracey2565 you just need to never have any children my god.
@@tracey2565 and you deserve hell
she doesn't have dogs, she has her own protection detail
It's so amazing to me how "Most" dogs know a child is a baby & they have to be delicate & protective. You can't teach that. The ❤ is real.
Someday someone is going to ask her "Were you raised by wolves?" "Um, yeah, kinda". Sweet family. 🥰
😄😍😍😍😍😍❤
Read this and literally shot milk out my nose. TY... LOL
Yep!! And think of the benefits when it comes time to begin dating!! lol "Uhh, yeah, I like you and I think you're nice, but my dogs have to approve you before we can go anywhere..." 'Your what???...." 5 dogs growl..... "Uhh, yeah...nice doggy-doggy..."
@@davidschmidt6013 😅
Haha 😂
5 dogs and a baby? I wish I had your energy level 😮
☺️
5 dogs and a baby sounds like a new family movie 😊
@@notsureiL I like it. Better than all the Woke nonsense Hollywood is pushing on us these days.
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.
I know, right??? I'm pregnant and don't have any dogs, and I'm already exhausted!! I can't imagine taking care of 5 German Shepherds and a baby!!
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.
How do you handle 8 dogs that’s amazing
@@chelsea9641 We've never really had major issues, we ran a dog rescue and rehoming service. We had 12, but sadly 4 of them passed away. We shower them with love and attention and stop them from fighting. The biggest girl is 160lb of Pyrenean mountain dog, the smallest is a toy long haired Yorkshire terrier.
Yes that's probably True.
Nice German Sheherds.
I hate how people are being narcissist stop talking smack about you're kind your a human too dogs aren't humans so stop praising them humans birthed her in the first place not dogs
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.
0:00 it's newborn baby
@Will Werk Wtf😅
Exactly, so many parents these days expect the pets or TV to be the babysitter...it doesn't work that way,. If you want to bring a child into this world, you need to be the one who takes care of it, not the pets. That's how all these horrible accidents happen, lack of supervision.
@Will Werk How in GODS name are these people evil?
Not to mention letting the baby eat the dog food and drink their water as she films.
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
She will be well protected by those dogs
Yes, but the dogs can't save the child from parasites and E.coli that she can get from crawling around in their filth and eating and drinking from their bowls.
Lies again? Greatest Of Them Is Real Got Smashed
I second that and agree with you 100%!
@M C Good luck, a gun ain't gonna be helpful since bad guys have shitey aiming, besides dogs are good ambushing so five on one is quite a uneven match with a predictable outcome.
That picture with her in the seat with the dogs surrounding her. Her face says it all like you don't want no smoke 😂
Can we all shout out to what a great human mom River has! Totally the type to have this working pack of love.
The child is named “river”? That’s rough
@@Handle35667 Why?
@@Dem0nD0ll It's not a name. It's a body if water
@@token555i think it's cool as a name, wish i had a name like that cuz, y'know, Mason sucks
That kid is the safest kid in the neighborhood. 🤣
I was thinking the thing 😂
Nobody is getting any bad ideas about the baby for at least three area codes as long as she is surrounded by her pack
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.
Absolutely.
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 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............
@@BullyG1 This is what I would rate as child neglect, drinking dog bowl water, eating dog food, mimicking dogs, then there is the ecoli on their mouths, licking her, hairs all over the place and air born, the smell in that house must be brutal and the danger off an unpredictable dog, a dog fight, the pecking order, the pure ignorance of parents 🙄 is pretty clear. 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. People who keep lots of dogs should NOT have children if they rear child like the dogs. End of story.
I would trust those dogs more than I would trust the parents. Your limited opinion of German Sheppards is ridiculous.
@@unneededhandle German Shepherds are unpredictable. Even well trained police dogs have been known to turn on their human partners. An infant should never be slopping around in a dog's water bowl or have it's food in their mouth. And your limited spelling ability is riduculous.
@@unneededhandle I would like to see how you would handle play dates with her friends,
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 how babies should be raised, exploratory and active
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.
Congratulations on your new baby, you'll never meet anyone so grateful for your kindness to them!👍🏻🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦
It’s not about the dogs. It’s about the lack of parenting when the kid copies the dogs not human beings.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So glad...German Shepherds and Mixed Shepherds, Huskies and Pittie type of dogs are the most abandoned
Congratulations!!!!
I was raised by/with dogs and I turned out just fine ☺️ She’ll have an incredible bond with animals for life❤️🐾 It’s the best way to grow up.
"By" 😁
Lmao NO you weren’t 💀
@@RealcordyYou don't know them
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.
This is pure heaven she will always have these knights in shining fur watching over her.
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
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
This is the BEST childhood one can EVER have I swear!!!
She is going to have a strong immunity system 🤣🤣 too 🥰
So true. I grew up with a dog pack as well as cats and never suffered from allergies or any major illnesses. Just the way nature intended.❤
@AllThat Remains quite the opposite for me. My mom had cats and dogs all the time and I was sick constantly.
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
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!
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.
She fits so perfectly with the pack! 💖💖
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.
So cute how River goes to the cages and lets them out whenever she wants 😂😂❤❤
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 like having 5 big brothers!
pets not brothers
They are just the sweetest dogs ever. The affection large dogs have for tiny humans is precious.
The dogs are angels as always, but this baby is a sweetheart too. Little girl has a very sweet, loving temperament. She's gonna grow up to be a good person
the white and brown dog at 2:21 is how I'm with babies too. very relatable
Beautiful to see! 🥰♥️ She has five older siblings that will protect her and watch her and love her every day 🥰♥️🐕❤️
We just rescued a beautiful german shepherd/mastiff mix for Christmas. She’s a blessing!!!
What an adorable little girl River is, and she's really good with the dogs, gentle and considerate. I greatly respect that River's mother doesn't leave her unattended with the dogs, this is excellent judgment.
It is great to raise your children surrounded by animals and pets. Many lessons to be learned from them.
Those dogs 🐕 are five of the most protective, and best looking baby sitters River will ever need. She's part of the pack.❤
German Shepards are amazing! Loyalty,Protective and Gentle!
People who love animals are THE best people on the planet.
Baby is really cute awesome personality beautiful German Shepherds. Baby's mom is awesome.
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!!
Anyone who considers hurting that little girl should definitely think again! She’s well protected for sure! ☮️❤️😊
Pretty sure they would never think again.
I’ve followed them for years and have loved watching the dogs and then when River was born watching her grow. They’re an awesome family🙏🏽🙏🏻🙏🏿♥️♥️♥️
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.
The dog will be STRONG with this girl when she grow up, and of all the forces out there getting dog is not half bad.
River is going to be a very safe and happy little girl. ❤
you sure about that?
You mean 5 angels.
German Shepherds are VERY intelligent, and PROTECTIVE. Best Wishes Giff-Master
So adorable 🤩 ... with such a powerful pack ❤️
Are you kidding me!!! 5 German Sheppard s guarding this little girl??? You can't ask for more than that ! Love your fur family !! Have fun in life!
Its hard to say who's more spoiled, the dogs getting all of Rivers attention, or River getting all of the dogs attention....100% love it
There like a pack so cute they protect him so much!❤
Clearly well trained, well behaved and very much-loved dogs summing up responsible dog owners and equally responsible parents.
She's going to be fluent in dog. Possible a great future dog trainer there!
Just beautiful. Dogs are so authentic and pure heart.
As a cherished member of their pack, River will NEVER have to worry about being mugged or harassed on the street when she's out with her protective pack, lol!! Seriously, would you try it on?? Lol!🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦
These dogs are stunningly BEAUTIFUL!!!
Thank you for your heart warming contribution
She will definitely go into some kind of animal care business, no doubt.
At that age babies imitate EVERYONE and EVERYTHING, so it makes total sense that she imitates the dogs 😊❤️
This baby is gonna grow up with the best security guards ever ! I have a German shepherd and she is so protective of all of us specially of my dad !
My parents had got a dog 3 years before I was born, butch guarded me until he died when I was 12, I'm 65 now still miss him
Caring is a learned level, we're not born caring,& pets are a great way to teach. Thank you!
She's going to be the most utterly fearless child on earth.
Those German Shepherds will guide her and protect her. What a bodyguard she has.
So beautiful and heartwarming ❤️
I had the Rottweiler raising and yes, this youngster will be very healthy!
I was raised with a very smart collie. My mom trusted her enough to leave me with her for short times.
Gorgeous dogs, beautiful baby -- how wonderful.
This has got to be one of the sweetest doggy videos! 🫶🏽 🥰 PS: Your German Shepherd’s are just gorgeous!!! I have one, too!
she is precious!!!
This kid has an amazing childhood.
What a wonderful beautiful video. This child is safe, healthy and loved. This upbringing will give her great memories forever ! ❤
That baby is going to have a STRONG gut biome! Good for her :)
Veľmi krasne a poučné video . Dávam vam za úplnú pravdu. Dieťa ktoré je od malička so psíkom psikmi . Je odolnejšie aj jeho imunitný systém proti chorobám .
Very BEAUTIFUL & STUNNING German Shephards. Ahhh, I miss mine. She passed 5yrs ago. But I have a fabulous Shiba Inu currently. And I love her to pieces. Dogs are the BEST!
That is one blessed child!!! You can trust your dog, but not your human!!!
They’ll grow up very close & protective of her👍🙏❣️
German Shepherds are the greatest dogs. My dad was a police dog handler & contrary to some opinions, the dogs are just regular family dogs when off duty. I grew up with my dads first retired GS, his working GS & our normal pet collie. I did all the things that little did, as well as work out how to open the big dog kennel at the end of the garden. Eating their food & playing with their water- yup. One of our dogs even grabbed my sledge rope and pulled me along. He didn’t like anyone else doing it. Lol. It was like I had my own husky. Almost. My brother did all the same stuff too. I think kids learn from everything around them, not just the adults. Even when dad retired, he carried on having rescue Shepherds. Being disabled I need dogs with a little less muscle. So it was sad to realise I might never have another GS in my life unless my son starts keeping them. I say less muscle, how silly of me. I’ve swapped that for hyperactive Springer Spaniel nutcases & stubbornly, bullying affectionate dogs. My spaniel is currently in his usual spot laying his head on my feet and my bullying affectionate Bavarian Hound mix is currently snuggled right alongside me laying his head on my shoulder. Basically I’m stuffed if I need to eat or pee. When I say he’s a bully, if I ignore him or don’t scratch him in the right place he will either nudge with his nose until you get the right spot, grab, yes actually grab with his prehensile claws, and move your arm until your in the correct position or he will use said claws to climb over me until I take notice. He’s pretty much GS sized. But he is a gentle old soul really & is a rescue from an Eastern European kill shelter. He is scarred from nose to tail. We don’t know his back story, but we figure it’s not good and don’t begrudge him the love he obviously craves. We got my spaniel as a puppy. He was the result of an unwanted farm dog pregnancy. So not exactly a rescue. But the pups would have gone to a rescue if no one bought them. I nearly got two, but someone enquired and I let the other go to them. He is awesome, always by my side, but not overly in need of affection. He wakes me with kisses, notifies me when it’s dead on 8am & 4pm for food, by pouncing on me and giving me a kiss. It took them all of twenty minutes to work out my daughters baby is a mini human and then they started in with the love and protection. Sadly, my daughter doesn’t live close & so I’m curious how the dogs will deal with seeing him at different stages of babyhood & toddlerness. I think it’s going to be fun. Because they are big and boisterous, I won’t be leaving them alone with the baby. But I think we are in for a fun time when he starts walking lol. ❤
GSD's are one of the most intelligent canine breeds and they live for the mission. Give a GSD an assignment and they're gonna figure out a way to get the job done. If the assignment is "protect baby" then that baby is the safest little girl in the neighborhood.
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. 🥰
Thank for sharing! Love German Shepherds. They are VERY good with children and d babies and they do know the difference! I grew up in a large family the oldest of 6 siblings. We had a German Shepherd and he was very good with us and all of our friends. The best dogs in the world!
You have such beautiful dogs and take such good care of them, you are a great tribute to humanity.
Thank you for sharing. This is one happy, lucky little girl! Amazing dogs! Great family… or pack 😀💜
the little girl is programmed to lead a wonderful and empathetic life. The parents do a wonderful Job with both, the dogs and the baby.
Those shepherds are beautiful
this kid will never get sick when he grow up
I read an article about this family recently. How ridiculously adorable! Love it
That’s so adorable!!! I just got a 2 month old cat and he is doing really good☺️ I hope that anyone reading this has a nice day❤❤❤ also I LOVE your Chanel!
God help anyone who tries to get between this little sweetie and her pack! Living her best life right now ❤
Exciting to see how baby and GShepherds will all grow up together! 😙
She is the dog Queen😁
The five furry babies are ALL so beautiful with cool names and River is one lucky, loved, and protected lil one!!!🤗💖
It's like mogly from jungle book without the danger. Blessed.
