Thanks I will contact my vet tomorrow and see if he can recommend a trainer I think it will benefit both of us as I'm used to having large dogs

when I took him to the vet he commented on how well behaved he was during the examination and he was a male

I have a feeling its more to do with being told off I think he's possibly been hit while been told off before

he is now part of our family and ill do whatever it take to improve his quality of life because he's obviously scared wee soul that he is

thanks again for all the advice hopefully I find a trainer local and wee sam can get over his fears
