As a soon-to-be parent, you're likely cherishing every moment of peace and quiet before the arrival of your new bundle of joy. But what about your first baby – your beloved dog? They've been your loyal companion through thick and thin, and they deserve a special treat just as much as you do. A babymoon with your furry friend is the perfect way to relax, bond, and spend quality time together before your new baby arrives.
