 Scared of People ?
Diesel is 8 months old and he is very scared of people. I take him everywhere with me. He has never nipped at anyone. He just backs up so that he can't be rubbed by a stranger. I actually have to pick him up so they can love all over him. Today I saw the cutest thing. This little girl at the playground wanted to rub him. He wanted no part of it. The little girl was only about 3. So I sat with him and she rubbed under his chin and he was fine with it. Altho he still backed away the more she made over him the better things got. She asked if she could hold him and I said sure. So while she was sitting in the grass I handed him to her. She fell in love with him. Then he turned and looked up at her and gave her an itty bitty lick on the nose. LOL Later she got up to walk away and he started to follow her wagging his tail.
Is this something that is unusual? My granmother's dog HATES kids and tries to bite them. He nips at a lot of people including my granny. I told granny she had better nip that in the bud real quick but she doesn't do anything. Now Diesel is very protective of me IF he is in my lap or licking me and our Shepherd comes by. So...
What is normal if there i such a thing LOL ...
