Our approx. 3 year old french mastiff still has issues we can't get rid of. We have had her for one year and the rescue/foster had her for one year prior to us. She has fearful anxiety. She seems to get better and then will revert back to old ways. Examples are still bathroom issues during bad weather, she becoming aggressive when startled, children running, I can knock on the door or table right in front of her and she comes at me as if I'm an intruder. One day at the park there were many dogs and owners hanging out and one owner grabbed the scoop and shovel to clear up some vomit from another dog when my puppy barked because he was startled and she went after the closest person to her. I have had a few times where I have actually been scared she was gonna bite someone! Fireworks have an effect that last for days, garbage trucks and so on. We have taken her to basic dog training and she does fine in public and is a regular at the dog park. She is submissive to the puppy but has started to defend herself a little from him. She obviously was abused when a puppy and it has given her a screw loose. She is on alprazolam now and we are ordering to holistic remedies to see if they work. Any opinions out there? Please help?
