Timid Shy 2 year old
I've had my English mastiff for about a year and a half now. We got her when she was 6 months old. She was playful at the breeder and very friendly, but when we brought her home she turned into a shy scared pup. We thought it was to do with her settling in with the other dog. When she is with just the family she is fine but as soon as someone comes to the house she runs the other way and hides.
She also hates going for walks and refuses to walk down the driveway unless my car is open and then she jumps straight in there refusing to get out unless we are back at home again.
Does anyone have any tips to help or been in a similar situation?
