Dog Refuses To Let Baby Sleep Alone. When Parents Find Out Why They Call The Police

The Dog Who Knew Too Much

Dog refuses to let babies sleep alone. When parents find out why, they call the police.

Jessie and David’s home situation was very normal until Jesse gave birth to a beautiful daughter. Ever since that moment, their family dog, Benji, shook things up completely.

Benji would not let their daughter sleep alone, and when they got separated, she would not stop barking. When David realized what was going on, he got the shock of his life.

He immediately called the police, and they came with every available officer. When the first police officer arrived, he could not believe what he was witnessing.

“How could a dog have noticed this?”

He told David that he should be very happy with such an observant dog. Deep down, David knew that he had screwed up; he should have been the one protecting his daughter.

Within minutes, at least a dozen more police cars arrived at the scene. They immediately started asking questions to both David and Jesse.

The couple was in shock. They had no idea of the gravity of the situation until now.

A Strange Change in Benji

What the officers came for was disturbing for sure. But the fact that it already started when Jesse was pregnant was even more alarming.

They had trusted the wrong people. But why did Benji refuse to let their daughter sleep alone, and what did David eventually figure out that such a large police presence was necessary?

It all started when Jesse was finally pregnant. They both wanted this for a very long time.

However, there was something that was bugging both of them: their dog, Benji. They were hesitant about her reaction to the baby.

Jesse had read some horror stories only from dogs that would not accept another family member. Jesse and David both hoped that Benji would accept this; otherwise, they were definitely going to bring Benji to a shelter.

Then one day, when Benji finally noticed that Jesse was pregnant, she started barking at Jesse’s belly repeatedly. Benji did not seem happy with the pregnancy; she started to act really weird.

They could not figure out what was triggering this behavior. Did Benji feel threatened, or was there something wrong with the baby that Benji could feel?

Searching for Medical Answers

Jesse had to get answers and quick before it would be too late. Jesse asked David to take Benji to the veterinarian.

They had to make sure that there was nothing going on with Benji before they would need to choose between the baby or the dog. That choice would not be easy, but deep down they knew that if they had to choose, they would definitely choose to bring Benji to a shelter.

This was to keep their daughter safe at all times. However, the vet could not bring clarity.

He did some medical checks to see if the dog was okay. There was nothing wrong.

He told David that she must be feeling something that was going on with the baby. He advised David to take Jesse to the hospital for some checkups.

When David brought the news to Jesse, she started crying. She felt like everything was wrong.

Jesse mustered up all of her courage to call her doctor. He told her to come in immediately.

Jesse called her friend Anne, who was there for her almost every day, to take her. She had been helping during the pregnancy around the house.

The Arrival of Baby Lily

She showed up within minutes to help her friend get to the hospital. When arriving there, the receptionist told her she could go in.

The doctor did some elaborate medical tests to make sure everything was all right. The ultrasound as well as other tests did not indicate anything that was wrong with Jesse or the baby.

They still did not get the answers they were looking for. When they arrived home, Jesse broke down.

She kept crying. She did not want to choose between her child and the dog.

Anne comforted her and told Jesse that she would be there for them when they couldn’t be home and would become their babysitter. She had plenty of time.

This comforted Jesse. There would always be someone there to keep an eye on Benji.

A couple of weeks later, Jesse finally gave birth to a beautiful girl, Lily. Benji had still acted strange, but this is when more erratic behavior started happening.

The first few weeks, everything seemed to go fine. Both Jesse and David were home to care for their little girl.

Benji seemed to have calmed down. But when they started working and called Anne with some concerning news, she told Jesse that Benji refused to let Lily sleep alone.

Overprotective or Something More

Benji would not leave her side. Jesse was totally baffled.

When she told David, he did not think much of it. Benji was just caring for Lily; he thought it was beautiful.

Then one day, Anne called in distress. She had separated Benji from Lily, and after returning downstairs, she was attacked by Benji.

Benji was definitely overprotective. David knew that Benji had to be punished for this behavior.

With a heavy heart, he went back to the veterinarian. The vet gave David a choice.

He could bring Benji to a shelter, or he could figure out why Benji was acting this way because the vet had a feeling something was off. David took offense to a comment that the vet made.

He said to David that they were probably the problem. Benji did not trust them to let Lily sleep alone.

However, David knew deep down that there was something else. He could not be the problem, could he?

For a while, they decided to observe Benji together with Lily. Lily seemed to love the dog, and Benji definitely loved Lily.

They could not say goodbye to Benji because she was overprotective. The problem was that whenever David would bring Lily to bed or Lily fell asleep, Benji would be at her side.

Suspicions Fall on a Friend

David just accepted the situation until one day Anne called to say that she was bitten by Benji. This gave David a sudden realization.

David realized that Benji only reacted strangely when Anne was around. Benji was calm when she was not around.

Anne must be the problem; he knew it. Jesse told David that he must calm down, but she refused to let David do anything erratic.

Jesse told David that Benji refused to let Lily sleep alone at night as well, so Anne couldn’t be the problem, could she? Jesse came up with a genius idea.
