Walks are really good to help with weight loss. Make sure you are not using a collar to attach to his leash but a harness or you will make his CT worse or act up. Not letting them get over heated and keep them cool is important and keeping them calm is extremely important you may need to talk to your vet about something to try that will keep him calm or maybe try rescue remedy many people here have used it. As for him knowing he is safe with you it may take a long time or it may not. My mom and dad rescued a yorkie about 3 years ago and he always gets scared in the car like he thinks we are going to take him somewhere and leave him and he starts shaking as soon as his harness goes on but he is getting better. He used to not let my mom hold him for any amount of time but slowly he lets her hold him longer and now lays next to her all the time. If we watch him for my parents whether its for an hour or a night he gets really sad like he has been left forever and its so sad. I would try a grain free food because in my opinion that is better for him and Wellness core makes a reduced fat also Eukanuba has been known for animal cruelty.
