Hi everyone, I’m looking for a bit of advice.
I have a 16-week-old Labrador puppy who is doing really well with training, meeting guests, and playing with other dogs. He doesn’t seek contact with strangers, which I don’t force him to do, but after a few minutes he usually relaxes.
He has been like this since he was very young. He is generally a sensitive little guy who needs to observe things before he feels comfortable interacting.
However, he seems very scared on walks. He gets nervous when he hears dogs barking, even if he can’t see them, and he sometimes barks at people we pass as well.
Has anyone had a puppy like this who grew up to be confident and well-adjusted? I would really love to hear your experiences.
