My mom and I have litter mates. My dog has been warm and affectionate from the first, but hers began life pretty stand-offish. However, she's now a major sweetie and very, very affectionate. My dad bought both the dogs and gave my mom first pick; for a while there I was afraid my mom might make me trade dogs because she was so disappointed with her puppy's cold shoulder attitude. But that has certainly changed! Maybe yours just needs time too. BTW, the dogs are three years old now; it took at least a year for their personalities to develop. |
