Alone with me, she was always her sweet, loving self, looking at me with those big trusting eyes, always leaning in for deep snuggles when you picked her up or she got next to you. I couldn’t let her life stay so unhappy

| Hummmm, I don't know if watching dogs jumping on each other or play chasing each other is a good idea, all that action Mike may take as aggression since he doesn't know what playing with other dogs is. It could upset him. Cause more fear of dogs. Do you have walking / biking trails near you, people take dogs on trail walks. Mike has to see calm dogs not crazy playing dogs.

Will continue setting up meet ups with this dog and see how it goes. I gave him lots of treats last night after their little play Joan, you were so right about just continuing with this dog and taking it slow. Thank you so much again! | |

| I am soooooo happy for you my eyes teared up, see, all Mike needed was a one on one, another dog near his size and calm, nice calming walks to gain trust in the other dog. Yes, keep it up, Mike will learn how much fun it is to run and play chase. Not all dogs get on well with many dogs in one area. Your goal is for Mike not to be scared when he sees other dogs. Everything is done in baby steps. Conquer this first step, it may take weeks just make sure Mike is 100 % comfortable with this one dog, then try the dog park and see how he reacts. The treats you should take with you and reward on the spot so he knows he is being rewarded for good behavior, and treat the other dog with the owners permission, you don't want a dog fight over a treat. Dogs must be rewarded on the spot. Giving treats when you get home Mike will not associate that with his good behavior.

At first couple of meetings with this dog I had to lure Mike to him with a treat and treat them both when they are almost nose to nose (with owner's permission) otherwise he didn't want to take a step forward lol | |

Cody is very food motivated, it was easy and fast to teach him all commands and a few tricks and he was 2 1/2 years old. Keep up the good work.
