Well if the dog whisperer was here...........

The relationship is not balanced, see. The dog needs an Alpha leader, strong, centered, in charge, not anxious, not just wanting to love him but to keep him in line. He is new to "The Pack" at your house and doesn't know his place yet. You need to be calm, centered, in charge.
And blizzard or not the dog needs to walk, every day. Dogs in nature walk most of the time, looking for food, being in charge of their territory. Walking burns off nervous energy, and centers the animal.
You need to be strong and assertive, the dominate Alpha leader. He is acting out because there is no leader.


$500 please.

You might want to try and use something of yours in his cage,Like a pillow case,a throw you have covered up with,a old pair of sweats,so your scent is in the cage.That what I did worked like a charm.
