We went to my grandparents house tonight. He's been there once before, but that was when he was a tiny puppy. He was fearless then. Tonight he acted so NERVOUS. He was acting the same way as he did with my friends brother, although maybe not quite as bad. Watching him I was seriously reminded of a wild animal. He was like a wolf. He would go near my grandparents, and was very jumpy....sniffing around the room. I gave my grandparents some treats to give him. He'd kind of creep up and snatch it from their hands and back away to eat it. He wouldn't let them touch him. But after a while..maybe a 15 minutes or so...after he'd checked the place out, he came closer to my grandma. He came up to her and licked her fingers a bit, and let her pet him. And when we had dinner he crawled right under the table and laid on her feet. He seemed much more relaxed around them when he realized food was involved.

So after being there for a couple of hours he was OK with my Grandma, but he still did not like the idea of being friendly to my grandpa. He was able to relax and take a snooze also (by me of course lol)

I'm hoping this *is* just some sort of fear stage that he will get over. I don't want him to be terrified of every strange person he meets. I was even thinking maybe getting involved in the therapy (going to hospitals, etc.) when he's older, but it would be quite difficult if he's scared of everyone lol.

What has happened to my fearless puppy?? I've heard both things about huskies......some say they are very friendly to strangers, and other say they can be quite aloof to strangers. I'm sure it depends on the dog also.

He's definitely getting into the basic obedience class in January. Hopefully I'll get Melissa to take Lady also, she really needs it.

Any more suggestions to help him get over his fear?
