Dex is fine at home, I just can't get him to be ok out of the house. Like the house we were at is their dog sitters. He LOVES her! But not at her house, only at my house. He loves my mom too....but not out of the house! Ive been with my fiancé for 4 years, living with him for almost 2. He has 2 older kids. The kids are awesome to the dogs, give them treats, take them for walks, brush them, etc... Yet they WILL NOT go near the kids hen they try to touch or pet them. However if I am busy or out, the dogs have NO problems hanging out with the kids. It's all on me! Uugghh
Thanks so much for the advice!!! We shall use these ideas and keep trying!
