I think it's genetics. My pebbles is always scared of strangers or new people. She doesn't snap but she hides and she will not let anyone carry her or touch her. Even if a stranger offers her treat she will refuse it. It takes her a while to adjust to people. She barks and growls too so i think they just need to time to adjust to people. I think we need to socialize our dogs more by taking them to puppy class or maybe walk them at the park. |
