I know what I would do as a trainer if a client- the problem is- it wont work with what we have.. I was hoping maybe someone might have ideas..
Logan in his comfort zone is fine with my husband. For reasons we can not get answers too, Logan gets un-nerved fast around my husband. Its not just him- its men in general. What I cant figure out is that Logan will go rest with my husband, offer affection, comes to him etc- but- if husband comes out of a room, or goes to approach him when Logan isnt in his " safety zone" ( ie the couch) Logan bolts..
As a trainer I would tell a client- okay- this person needs to be the dogs total care- feeding, cookies, going outside etc.. The problem here is that my husbands work schedule- that is not a option. Does anyone have any ideas? I think its comes from Logan living with a large number of dogs- ie someone shows up, and chaos starts- and he is not sure how to deal with it.. Whatever the reason- we have a problem.
Logan has been here since april 19th- by now he should accept husband like furniture- its here- accepted.. Why its not- I have no clue.. And we can not do what I would do because of his schedule of work...

Have your hubby do part time feeding and treats.. just do it when he is home, and have you just feed him the rest of his meal in a bowl. So all fun things come from your hubby.

We have been doing that.. Problem- 5 days out of the week, husband comes home and we are awake for only like 3 hours before bedtime. Where we live now by the time he comes home, dogs are fed and in and out- ... I just wish he would settle in. I mean- its been 6 weeks-
I am going to have his thyroid checked and eyes but its weird.. He acts like he thinks men are the devil sometimes. Other times totally normal ..
