Some dogs do just have an odor one can't mask well even with bathing, perfuming. Just accept love and it and with time, your own nose will actually adjust to the constant odor. Play with and start a good positive reinforcement training program for too quiet dogs to reinforce your leadership skills, bond with your new dog and give it a sense of achievement. All those can really charge up a dog who is hiding its worries in solitude and withdrawing from life by constant napping. And a lot of dogs won't bark until they accept their current surroundings as their home. Dogs often just reflect who you are in some way.
