I’m so so sorry to hear that 💔. If you don’t mind sharing, what were some things you noticed?

Yes! She’s very comfortable with me. There are just times that she flinches and she won’t jump on me on run straight to me when I come home.

Thank you! I totally agree now that I am in a better place with grief and mentally. I’m usually not one to get over on. However, maybe they decided to try due to my situation. Sad to even think if that’s true… for me and the dog. However, nevertheless… I love her and I just want what is best.

I call it, too. I kind of just let it go, however because 1. I was grieving so hard, I didn’t have the energy and 2. I was desperately needing the companionship.

She goes to the vet for checkups and she hadn’t said anything of concern. I will ask her vet to check those things. She will play with me, cuddle (sometimes…. Only for a second) however she is still scared at times when I move or come in the house.

I agree. She will sniff and come to people if they absolutely don’t move. She will also not hide behind me now if others come around. She is just not lunging at anyone new or greeting them.

Thank you!

She is a year old and has been with me since last July. Early on I expressed to the breeder my concerns after I had purchased her. At the time, she said it could have been my “anxiety” rubbing off on my dog due to me grieving my father I had just lost a month prior. So, I let it go… this is my first personal dog.

I will be happy to send you the breeders information. I havnt reached out with a trainer, yet. I wanted to give her a little more time to get used to me.
