Hello All,
I recently got a 4.5 month old dachshund, George, from a breeder in the suburbs. I live in a city area where the streets are mostly lined with townhouses, and there are is a park in the area where several dogs play.
Though George is fairly assertive in the house (when I'm around at least) he seems to be terrified of the city. I try to take him for walks, but he freezes up and sits down. He does a little bit of sniffing around just outside our front door if i first sit with him for awhile.
My method thus far has been to take him out front onto the street for 10 or 15 minutes about 2-3 times a day.
I really want to be able to walk/run him and take him to the park.
Any help would be great... Thanks.
