thank you so much for being such a kind gen...hello,<br />thank you so much for being such a kind generous person to your pup. I really (really) think that it is time for a professional. Ideally a positive reinforcement trainer and a vet who will help with every step of her treatment plan. I also think that it might be beneficial to discuss an anti anxiety medication. No dog should struggle this much. There is help out there, I promise.. work diligently to find the right vet AND the right trainer.krista magnifico, DVMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15133566329579911573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4667516629745731439.post-86938831315914873952017-02-20T23:38:23.595-08:002017-02-20T23:38:23.595-08:00I have a sweet border collie/ sheltie mix who was ...I have a sweet border collie/ sheltie mix who was feral, I think. (No one knows for sure) before we rescued her six years ago. She is a beautiful soul and is happy with my husband and I in our calm home in rural Colorado. Our problem is that she takes, literally, years to warm up to new people. She now has about five people she likes! When we leave, even though our dog sitter is knowledgeable and works very kindly with her, she is frozen with fear, and stays crouched behind my bed the entire time. She sneaks out at night to pee. I feel so guilty, and wish I could help her. She has a very well adjusted "sister dog" who is helping her, and I have tried a thunder shirt, DAPL collar... she is great until we leave. Is there aything I am missing here?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07266384518865604052noreply@blogger.com
