well we rescued a 2yr old beagle/chow mix about 4months ago. we're guessing he was abused and what not because he's very afraid of me (the male of the house). he won't come when called out of total fear. i've tried luring him with food(like real good food). ignoring him and letting him come to me and other things. kinda getting on my nerves. i mean sometimes he's so spooked he'll try and run through the door to get away. i'm afraid he's gonna hurt himself sometime cuz of this.
i try walking him extra long just to tire him out to get him to relax a bit more before training with him but that doesn't work either. the only time he's good with me is first thing in the morning in bed...but as soon as the lady gets out of bed he turns cold and won't go near me.
