I think you need more than 3 days for your two 4yr old to adjust to your
new baby. Actually an older dog does not like to be jumped on by
a puppy. Some will correct the pup with a nip other's may do more so
you really need to be careful. I would keep them apart for certain
until they get accustomed to the pup being around. Then I would
sit on the floor with one dog at a time and try to get them used
to it being around. It will be hard for the puppy not to jump on them
so maybe other's with experience will help you.
