It all makes sense, I do get nervous with other dogs and people around him. I have to learn to relax and be calm. Easier said than done though. I asked the trainer if some wine would help me 
Our next meeting is next Thursday and we are taking Simon to an outdoor mall around other people and dogs. |
I am definitly for the wine!!!! I get nervous when people approach me and my dogs, a little wine sounds like a pretty good idea!
