I have a question..we have Riley for 11 days..he was not socialized at all the breeder was terrible,,and he was sooooo afraid of humans, well he will come to me now..but is still a little skittish with the other family members..he has made great progress in a short time..but when should i start training him...he is starting to chew EVERYTHING. and I dont want to scare him by saying No in the wrong tone..but I have to start training him on what behavior is acceptable and what is not..should i wait longer to build his trust first..or should i start to disaplin now?..any advice would be great thanks.
