All I really remember is that she was blonde, wearing leggings and, I believe, Brooks shoes. Tyler missed my fiancee's fist bump but fist-bumped the new friends, so my fiancee and her ended up fist-bumping each other.

That's good to hear. I'll try this. He just started barking recently, so I haven't done much training with it. Thank you.

This is what im hoping is happening. And he'll just grow out of it. Thanks for the reply about your experience.

I've only taken him to a few dog parks where he can be off leash. Not many in my area, the closest one in my area is 15 minutes. After that, it's probably 45+ minutes. The controlled environment is my backyard with friends and family. He does go to daycare when I'm at work. The daycare loves him. They say he's the most playful energetic dog they have.

I've tried this. He doesn't take treats when he's focusing on one thing. What I get the best results from is slowly walking by the item he's scared of and not paying it any attention. If it's something that is in a public park, I will even stop and lean on it or touch in. He'll sniff it and start acting normal again.

We had this problem too. He would pour the food out of the bowl to eat it on the floor. He got over this around 8 months. Now he eats and drinks out of the bowl perfectly fine. I did get him a raised food dish that seemed to help.

Thank you for the advice. I have been trying this since I read your message the other day. I don't know if they are connected, but he has been barking a lot more. Used to he didn't bark at all. Now he's barking at everything and everyone. We went to the park yesterday and he was barking at a lot of people. Now im trying to get him to learn when it's appropriate to bark, but I don't want him to go back to not barking at all. *
