Oh yeah I completely understand, mine are not good at everyone of these except maybe Joey but not all the time. I took Ollie to a workshop before the pandemic for timid dogs and exposure and they had Ollie walking on a tarp, stepping over little jumps, checking out boxes and then the one thing he would not do which was a kiddie pool with those kids balls from a ball pit. We tried to put him in the ball pit and he shot balls everywhere trying to get the heck out. I learn new stuff with every pup. I’m not sure how Ollie is going to do when they start having pet events again but I’m trying to work with him as best as I can but at home he is a completely different dog.
