@_amberinamerica: Mr Ted was part of the family from the moment we brought him home! We will do everything we can to help him get over this fear/anxiety of people and live out his best life - we know he’s got it in him! Will let you know what the trainer says! #rescuedog #anxiousdog #rescuedogsoftiktok #adoptdontshop
As a dog trainer I can tell you that it will take time, the trainer will be the first person that he can trust outside of the family. Whatever he tells you to do- practice is so important. Doing it in real life is important- the trainer can train YOU to do anything, you guys are the ones who will have to put in the work. I have faith in you! You’re doing all the right things. Most people would shy away at this point.

I think most neighborhoods don’t have public garbage cans. It’s just a thing here.

I had one like this and we put bacon in guest’s pockets. The smell added curiosity. Then we had friends offer cheese, peanut butter or bacon when visiting. It really helped. I didn’t worry about people out and about. 🍀🍀

Is there a video of his fearful behavior to compare once he is trained?

Please keep us updated.❤
My re-home doesn't like people that he doesn't know coming to the house. He doesn't like strangers stroking him either.

If you can afford it, hire a Certified Veterinary Behavior Specialist. They will work with you and your family one-on-one to develop and implement a plan specifically for Teddy. The certification is key though, don’t hire just any “behavior specialist”

“Place” is the BIGGEST command to help my dog cope with strangers. On a raised cot or crate. And with practice it DOES get better! Also having the leash on in the house in case helps.

I have the exact same problem with my rescue who’s also a doodle. He trust me and me only. He’s scared of every person who comes in my house and I really can’t take him out bc his anxiety is too bad then when we get home he’s scared of me for a day or so. Breaks my heart to know what our rescues have been through. 😢

My heart goes out to Mr. Ted. It dies sound like he had something in his past that affected him. I really hope the trainer can help because he looks like a wonderful good boy. 😊
