Has anyone ever had a problem with puppy not wanting to train or learn?
My roommate has a 4month old pup and I feel like the dog doesn’t understand anything she wants from her. Like the puppy isn’t motivated by food or play or toys or affection. She is very fearful too. Dog barking sends her to a panic and she runs away.
Is it normal? I want to help my roommate but I have never had a pup only adult dogs and completely different breeds.
Is there a different way bloodhound brain functions? I mean it’s a working breed but not wired like a shepherd or spaniel so perhaps you have some tips?
