When Daisy first arrived to our home, a "normal" dog she wasn't. As we all know, dogs will drop everything for a tasty treat! Daisy though had never been offered a treat before and didn't even know what one was. She was so scared of everything around her, she wouldn't even let her nose guide her to the likes of human chicken or turkey!
My dogs however, showed her otherwise.
The excitement in the room when the "people food" came out became infectious to little Daisy and now our reach for the fridge door incites excitement in this little girl! We have found her favorites - deli sliced turkey, chicken, and American cheese and have used those as incentive for her to come out of her shell.
Other than her food and periodic treats, we refrained from giving Daisy human touch for the first month as she had plenty to "work on" settling in here. Building Daisy's trust at her own pace was the goal for month 1.
