I don't want to break his spirit and want to sweetly be patient for him to continue on, but I am at a loss for how to coax him into it. Nothing sets it off (other dogs, people, etc). Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks!!!
Turn your self facing him and back away calling his name and acting likea total fool and see if you can intrest him is moving.

Long line him and make it a game for a while of catch your Mom.

Treat and only the best under his nose and lure him a long and feed and go and then waen off the treats.
