My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Chicken... He was a stray dumped on my street after the shutdown ended and people had to go back into the office to work. It took me 3 days to coax him into my garage, a trail of hot dogs finally worked. He had been darting cars and people for 3 days, it was freezing and raining and he was tiny. He's scared of strangers (adults & kids), strange dogs, doesn't like cats, and scared of loud noises.

He's also very sweet, a lap dog, likes baths and to be brushed. He likes toys and bones and to play with my other little dog. She's socialized but I don't know where he came from but I know it wasn't a good situation. He was scared of the doors in the beginning but I've taught him several commands since I found him. He know sit, stay, wait, down, up, eat, treat, nite nite, take your medicine, walk, car ride, bra (instead of harness), leash, brush, bath...
He's very intelligent and wants to learn. I just don't know how to train him to not be reactive.
