my pup is scared of going outside~!!

[beckyloong]

I noe from talking to other owners that all their dogs enjoy a walk outside but my pup wimpers and cries and shivers whenever we take her outside. And its not like she is cold, she has a jacket.

Why is this happening and what should I do??

Hopeless,

Becky

Bring little treats with you. Or a favourite toy. Thats how i got my pup to love water. She use to be scared stiff. Hope this helps

How long have you had her for? Penny was scared at first, but started enjoying it when she went more often. Skyhigh suggested a good thing, bring treats or toys, be very enthusiastic and happy when you take her outside. If you've only had her for a short while then i'm pretty sure she'll get over it soon. If you've had her longer you're gonna have to work on it a bit harder. Make being outside a good fun experience for her and she won't be scared no more. Penny loves going outside now... except when it's dark, she doesn't like that too much lol.
