Pickle

Hi all,

I've put a few more recent photos of Pickle on the site - she's all grown up now and is quite beautiful.
We're getting on well at obedience but she's become increasingly jumpy and nervous - has anyone else had these issues with their dogs - and how have you managed to get them over it?
She is completely thrown into a panic by strangers coming in during training - had to stop going to agility for the same reason - too many "odd" people hanging about waiting for the next class.
The trainer says I'm doing the right thing by carrying on as normal and not making too much of a fuss of it - but she just slinks around hyperventilating and trying to hide under chairs - quite dramatic, poor baby!!
Any helpful tips received gratefully.

B & Pickle x

I am not a behaviourist, but the road I would be heading down would be to try and de-sensitise the situation, i.e. make these worrying times a signal for fun....
