Hi!
The training is going well when it comes to walking with a leash, obeying turns, body language. We're practicing zig zagging now. I've noticed improvement since a week + the formal training started.
The problem is ... INDOORS and that's frustrating
Understand that Ragnar was a stray dog so I see where the stealing food from table and surfaces comes from however.
He pees inside sometimes, 2 days in a row now and the newest one.
He doesn't like his food anymore. He is hungry and will go after the cat's food or have any other treat except his food, only very reluctantly when there's no other choice. That started today.
Another thing started today. Every time I open the door from his sleeping area. (He's sleeping in the laundry room while in training. We're temporarily staying here so I have no choice of a sleeping pen or something of the sort)
Going back on subject now every time I open that door he comes out fearful. Ears laid back, not directly looking at me. I'm super puzzled.
He drinks water normally, he's hungry except doesn't like his current brand anymore. So why is he so fearful when he comes out of there.
He has a lot of character. He's not a submissive dog so I'm just wondering here and I have no clues.
So summarizing: Pees in the house, steals food, gnaws in hands and feet of people, refuses his current dog food and fearful when coming out of his sleeping area and he won't listen inside the house. What to do?
Oh! He's around 9 months old.
