So shy! My three-year old dog has always been a little shy, despite being well-socialized since I got him at 10 weeks. He has taken classes and received his Canine Good Citizen award. He goes to a small dog play group once a week and is often around other people and dogs. He has always been very attached to me, but lately it's been getting worse, and he's often shy and scared to the point of trembling in new situations. I feel so bad for him. I feel like I'm torturing him by taking him places, but I don't know if leaving him home will only make him more frightened. What can I do???????? |
