I dont understand why he is like that. I realize now that I probably should have started with a female for my first dobe but it's too late now.
And he just got neutered on friday.
Any tips?? |
I'm left wondering what trainer left you high and dry to not show you how to correct his behaviour in the class setting when he was growling... The trainer really should have assisted you in that situation and given you pointers to over come his fear.
The advise given here is sound and I'd definetly look into other venues for training that will help you in person for these types of situations. Your trainer should only be a phone call away if you're not in class IMO.
