    We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.

Meeting Strangers Outside

My puppy used to get scared of strangers, so what I did was I gave his favorite treats to my neighbors and asked them to give it to my pup whenever they meet him... Now whenever he meets strangers, he starts sniffing and giving them kisses for some treats lol

I'm glad I'm not the only one with this issue. Ours is two, and we've just got her. She seems to tense or fixate whenever someone passes, or she spots someone. We've taught her to "leave" whilst clicking our fingers and she seems to snap put of it, but I think it's their guarding nature. Someone stopped and talked to me, after a while she sat down and just ignored them and waited patiently just to walk on. There is hope!
