I am so sorry about the discouraging comment the behaviorist made.
My Kimchee is also a shy boy. He loves people, and he loves my friends coming home and visiting, but when he is outside, he is a bit shy. Since we added Mochi (yorkie girl) into our family, I patiently 'taught' him playing with Mochi was a good thing, after one month, he changed from looking at Mochi from a distance to chasing and playing with her. We are happy to see that change. We are still working on some other aspects, too.
I hope your baby will turn around, just be patient and be consistent in the training. I wish you all the luck. |
