Chuchi · 01-20-2010, 05:14 AM

I'm trying my best to get Chuchi socialized at a young age but feel I'm running out of time. He is 5 1/2 months old now. I have been giving him as much exposure to dogs as possible. Left him in a dog camp for 5 days where he spent his time running around with a 5 month old beagle that at first would dominate him (pin him down and bark) and now he can play (although she still beats him

lol).

What would be the best method to have him not fear the dogs in the park. I let him play with them in the park but many times he tries to hide behind me and I move to let him play but he still needs to gain much more confidence

Any tips are GREATLY appreciated!
