“Love all the information you put out, highly recommend! Have been binge listening to all of your content and wanted to ask a question, I have a 10 month old un-neutered Potcake (street dog from Turks & Caicos) he resembles a vizsla. He’s dog friendly, severely anxious and scared of humans, has food aggression with other animals, and the biggest issue with training he’s terrified of the leash / sidewalk / street and cars. But walks amazing on any trail on leash. I’m close with other owners of dogs from his litter and the mother who was rescued, all the puppies have these same issues. We got him after losing our old dog to cancer, and I feel like a failure not starting training sooner when we got him as a puppy whilst grieving.
I’m wondering how you would recommend to start back to the basics after not giving him structure for this long, how to gain that respect in the relationship whilst dealing with him being a highly anxious dog? Does the genetics play a big part in how I should be approaching training?
Thank you in advance, appreciate all of your content!”
