I wasn't sure where to post this so if it is corrected I will understand.
Does anyone out there know why a puppy would not be a huge "tail wagger"? Kaiser wags a little, but he is more often quite "serious" to the point he has this little frown like he is really concentrating, or looks worried.
Should I be concerned, because I am used to seeing all sorts of puppies look like walking jello!! They look like all Ed's puppies on his videos, and Kaiser is much more subdued, until he sees one of our cats and then wants to PLAY and he lights up!!
Could this be a socialization thing, do I need to get him out more? He is the only puppy in our home, and he is cautious of all other dogs, barking at them on our walks, hackles raised to the point of being CRAZY!! It is tough to get him re-focused to even get him home.
Any suggestions?
Sorry so random...

My Shepherd pup wasn't much of a tail wagger when she first came - I thought she was a little serious too. I don't really think it is anything to be concerned about. Play with your puppy - like really play! Run around a pull a leather tug behind you and run and jump and PLAY! So that when he sees YOU he lights up!
For the barking - you are going to have to use desensitizing. Use the search engine, there have been some really awesome posts on how to go about this.
