"You know I might do that if I cant get Garbie worked out. I have only had him about a week and half of that week I was at the fire station so I have not had alot of time to get much work done with him. Luckily I have a few months before family camping season starts so hopfully by then he will be cool like Steve. Him being 4 y/o, new to being on a lead, walking on a trail, and not really idenifying Steve and I as his new heard are probably the biggest issues right know. Kind of a life shock. I am sure in a month or so we will be alot better off. Thanks for the info"
Hi Mike,
Don't be surprised if it takes him a lot longer than a month to bond to you and stay with you. It's probably best just to plan to keep him on lead for some time; then try him off lead in a situation where it's no big deal if he heads back to the truck.
