[quote=Anonymous]What I think has been missed in this thread is that this is a shelter dog who is anxious and undersocialized. Dog daycare is scary. Meeting other dogs is scary. The dog has chosen OP as their “person” and is OP’s shadow. I’ve had a dog like this and it’s incredibly draining and I’m a dog person who has always had dogs. OP; training and anxiety medications can help your dog. The more confidence, the less clingy. If you can do as a PP recommended and socialize your dog with an older, calm dog off leash and in a calm space, that will help your dog learn how to be a confident dog. In the meantime, it’s okay for you to acknowledge this stinks. The transition from a shelter dog to a dog in a home is not a quick one. [/quote]
