I have a 6.5 month old blue Doberman. I went to see a new litter at the breeder and was planning on just seeing the litter and parents. This poor dog was running with a pack of 7 adult and 2 puppies from his litter. He spent the whole time I was there curled in a ball hiding or so scared of the other dogs he was barely on is feet. I fell in love with him and knew I couldn't leave him there to be abused.
It has been a month now and I have been working with the 8week to 8 month video and pack training. My question is this: I can't not be out of Boudreau's sight. He comes unglued if I leave the room and heaven forbid I should leave him for more than 5 minutes. His crate is in my son's room so he is with someone but he totally freaks out. I have my son doing the treat trick for when he is quiet and calm. That isn't working.
He will throw a fit but as soon as he see me he is so happy and calm. I don't even have to talk to him, pet him of let him loose. He just has to know he can see me.
Can someone please help me ?
PS: On another topic, he has his ears cropped but they don't stand up. Not sure how long the breeder taped them. Vet says to just message them and they might stand up. ANy suggestions?
