[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A friend recently brought over a crate. The dog hasnt gone in it, but we leave it open and available. Also the dog hates walks and won't leave the end of the driveway. Any advice on this?[/quote] My guess is that it might be the hunting thing (going outside and away from the house might have meant some kind of hunting exercise with noise and chaos). Just a guess. Is there a yard? Perhaps at first just having some time out in a quiet yard. Let him settle a little bit. And then start working with him to do little distances beyond the driveway at a time, rewarded with treats. Try to do it at a time of day or evening when it is quiet out and there isn't a lot of people outside/traffic. The idea is to make it as calm and quiet as possible. The prozac will probably help a lot with this as well. Don't give up.[/quote]
