I will be out of town on Feb 26-Mar2, but I would like for Onyx to get acquainted with the dog walker while I am around so that he knows they are friendly. The days of being acquainted are from Feb 24-25, but would love to meet beforehand!
Nervous around new people, barks at intruders, but loves back scratches, treats, & playing fetch.
If he is nervous and protective of the couch (that's his zone), just sit on the floor to get on his level so he can come to you. It helps if you do that & bribe him with treats. Please don't bend down and put your face in his, because that makes him more nervous & he thinks he's in trouble. He has previous trauma that he has never gotten over, as he is a street rescue.
He's skittish around larger dogs because he's been attacked by one previously.
There is public transportation & parking.
