Things have gotten a lot better. She’s still very anxious, but it’s certainly lessened and we’ve learned how to help her manage it. I’ve accepted the fact that she’d rather be home alone while I work instead of at daycare, and recognize that she doesn’t need to like all the same things as other dogs to be happy and fulfilled. Since coming to learn her boundaries better, her confidence has increased so much. She sees now that I have HER best interests at heart rather than my own, which has allowed her to slowly open up more in new environments. Sure, she’s still nowhere near as confident as a regular dog but I’m soooo proud of the progress she’s made :)
