Glacier, Bud is a rescue, he was dumped off in the woods, and was found living in a barn by himself when he was one. I rescued him from a kill shelter 14 months ago, and he is still afraid of Rick (my hubby)
Over the past 14 months we have tried everything to get Bud to like him! Rick being the only person to feed him, give treats, me ignoring him so Bud would go to Rick for love... nothing.... Then we tried Rick totaly ignoring him... nope..
It took 4 months before Buddy would let Rick put him in his crate, it took 8 months before Buddy would take a treat out of his hand, and when he does, Bud takes the treat and RUNS!!!
Rick can't even pet him!!

Talking to a behaviorist the other night, she said to try the 5HTP first, to see if the serintone levels in his brain are off.
Then she said to get his thyriod tested, and she also asked if Rick's family has any history of dieases... because dogs have been known to detect cancer and other dieases like that. And maybe Rick's sick and Bud sences that. So she really left me with a few options, I just don't know where to start!!!
