He previously had to go through Heartworm treatment and he is now healthy. He is 1 year old. The issue with Riley is that he is painfully shy, very timid, skittish of noises. We have helped him overcome some common noises in our house and neighborhood. Training has been nil because he is so very timid. He is housetrained. But we really need to leash-walk him. Are there any specific training tips for a dog like Riley? Thank you so much! We adopted a rescued German Shorthair Pointer. He previously had to go through Heartworm treatment and he is now healthy.
