troubled shetland sheepdog
We got a minniature collie a few months ago from a so-called "backyard
breeder", who was mistreated. She is extremely nervous and skittish all of the time, and she barks at every noise and becomes very disturbed when she sees a reflection (light shining on a miror, flashlight, etc.) to the point where she's attacked my camera. She walks around the apartment and bites the walls, kitchen chairs, and even tries to bite the floor... she doesn't seem to bite soft objects like couches. She has a bunch of chew toys so it's not a lack of something to chew. One other bizzarre thing to note is that she jumps ontop of my cat and my sisters leg, (for means of keeping this post "clean" I'll leave it to your imagination what she's doing when she does this). Is there anything that can be done with this dog? Herbal medicine, specialty training? Any tips to help this dog are very appreciated. We are very attached and do not want to give her up to someone who can tame her. Thank you. |
