We got a 2 year old female Daschound from the shelter a couple of months ago. She has come a long way since we got her. She has had 2 litters of pups already and we took her in a couple of weeks ago to get fixed. She had severe separation anixety when we got her, but like I said...much better. She's like a new dog since we brought her home from the shelter.
The problem that I have is my son. He is 21 and is off at college. Whenever he comes home for a weekend, Bella (my doggy) does a low growl and then will pee right there on the floor (like a scared pee). If he tries to pet her or anything, she pees and then runs away. He is very upset over this because he really wants to get along with our dog.
The only thing I can think of is that maybe she was abused by a young male. Other people she is fine with. However he and his friends can't get near her.
What steps can we take to get Bella use to being around my son so she can get over this?
