Is it normal for a 7 month old pup to be afraid of everything? |
My puppy's being weird. He's 7 months and he's a husky/chow/pit mix. To start off, when he was about 5-6 months, I brought him to PetSmart so I could maybe socialize him a bit. (NOT PetsMart classes) He reacted very well to a dog who was there and he was really submissive to the other dog. He was also doing well with people too. But around here, he gets scared when people try to pet him and he pees b/c he's so scared. He also pees when someone new comes over (from excitement). After 5 mins, he warms up to them and is fine, but it's like that with every person around here. What's even worse, is if a motorcycle passes by, a lawn mower, weed eater, or big truck, even the UPS truck pass by, he gets scared and freaks out. I've been trying to get him used to these things. I've already gotten him used to barking dogs and he seemed fine when my friend just now passed us on his bike. He used to be afraid of bikes. But anyway, will he grow out of this? And no, I don't baby him when he's scared. He will grown out of it. The best thing you can do is get to his level and show him that it will not hart him and prays him when he does a good job. It could also be from something that happened before you got him. All you came do is be there when he needs you! How often do you spend time with him and how often does he socialize with others......it helps to know I guess every puppy is different. Uh, ill tell you wen ive finished reading, sheesh I would keep doing Cesar's techniques. He just needs some confidence and your leadership and it should all work out. In case your wondering i have been a vet tech for 10 years. Whne someone comes to your house tell them to ignore the dog and let the pup come to them. exactly same here. we got a beagle from petsmart at 6 months and is a year now and is still afraid but a little better. . .i think it is abuse.( except benny was literally afraid of everything at first) This is natural at that age. Just act normal and talk to him. But don't overly protect him or cuddle him too much for being scared, because he will think he is supposed to be scared. He will grow out of it. Continue taking him to places where he will see a lot of other dogs and people, and can get used to seeing vehicles and things from a distance. When my dog got a little older, he barked at a garbage can that had been put in a new place in the park. Pretty funny! |
