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.
