Do you know the "secret" to convert your dog from shy to confident in no time? A strategic plan of action! The Process: A shy dog that knows exactly what you are asking of her will be less likely to panic. It’s essential to teach your timid dog the basic commands, especially “Sit, ” “Stay, ” and “Come.” When a timid dog sees the confident helper dog playing, sitting for treats, and enjoying herself, he will often relax and join in on the fun. If your shy dog has a doggie friend she knows and trusts, by all means, use that “mentor dog” to help in the training and socialization process. If your timid dog doesn’t like other canines, try including a person they trust. Worried dogs have a hard time enjoying life. To break the worry cycle, teach your dog to play games such as “Fetch” or “Hide-and-Seek.” If your shy dog fears other dogs, the normal canine greeting procedure—a nose-to-nose, nose-to tail, play-posturing ritual—should be replaced with a technique called the “directed walk.” Well have no more questions because I am clearing all these doubts un this value packed post. Go through it to understand what exactly needs to be done. PS This is going to be a series that will help you get closer to your pet and you also have small homework to do as well. ❤ (Drop a heart in the comments) #myrapetcare #onlinepetcoach #onlinepetowner #smallpetcare #smallpetcoach #petparenting101 #newpetclub #pettips101 #pettips
