Gun Dog Rescue

Thank you all for answering the question of my dog and gun shots, I know it's hard but it will not eat or play and can not even get him outside to play his favorite game is playing football or Frisbee was a rescue dog that was launched around like a football by children when he was a puppy, but it did not hurt a bone in his body and there is no way bad tempered or bad and never bite, and I will try everything people said.

"He was a rescue dog that was kicked around like a football by children when he was a puppy" As if that is normal ...?

My dog is just afraid to walk on the bridges, but I have known fear of dogs and shooting fireworks, I do not think anything can be done to be honest ...

It is not uncommon .. there are dogs who are afraid of loud noises and retreat in case of exposure to such noise

I answered a similar question and you can find it on my profile for more details, but essentially it involves using your dog with small noises and gradually work up louder than the noise, he became confident . You reward the calm behavior or interested in the behavior and ignore fear. You just go to the sound of silent practice and work your way up.

My dog is terrified of fireworks and gunshots, but do not worry because it is normal. Just leave the dog and give him something to hide under, for example. office ...

hope this helps =]

Hello, we had RETRIVER gold and she hated guns and fireworks, we could not do anything with it, we tried everything in the end we took her to the vet and they gave us given tablets for Nov. 5 to give and not the turn she comes to sleep, she was so bad she used to knock over furniture, the tablets are only short-term, but they help, hope this helps.

When my dog is a puppy, and the first storm she had ever met .... I knew I could not let her know it was a scary thing, I went outside (she was sitting at the door) and ran, plastic flower pots thrown around, lauged and splashed in puddles! I'm still a point of always having a fun time during the storms ... and the bat does not dog eyelid now, no mater how violent the storm.
Maybe you could do something similar?

It has a long way to go. It has so far received terrible treatment of the man until he met you.

It will take time to trust him again.

Dogs have sensitive ears and do not like sudden strike and fireworks flashing. Something might be afraid of his past life this way if the chances are that he will always be afraid.

Just love him and let him know the happiness and keep firearms or fireworks during extinction. If the sound of weapons is on TV just sit and pet him to console him. It will probably then accept.

Good luck anyway.
