He is a 12 months old poodle and had to be shaved after having long hair. I understand it can take a while for them to get used to it and changes in behavior is expected but it’s like if it was a totally different dog.
He doesn’t listen at all, is extremely clingy which is affecting my day to day life. He wants to be next to me all the time but I cant touch him.
Outside, he pulls, don’t listen, body slam me when I put him in a long lead. He is not telling me when he needs to go potty, he holds it until I take him out.
The good thing is that he is eating, drinking water and still plays.
How long should I wait for his behavior to improve back to the good boy he was before or should I start training him again? I’ve been giving him space and just time to decompress. It’s been three days after grooming. I feel I don’t like him right now but I know he went through a bit change.
