    Scared Rottie

    Okay, my rottie is scared of just about everything. She is REALLY afraid of men. We got her about 1 year ago, and I noticed that any movements scared her to death. Changes also totally freaked her out. She has gotten a lot better but she is still skittish and she acts like it's a sin to be even partially active. (She is also VERY[I][U] opinionated) She never raises her ears in alertness at any time. How do I get her to be who she really is?
    i mean, she trusts me alot but she doesn't have any livliness about her. Please, I would like any advice I can get.

    Thanks

    Firstly, welcome to PT. You might want to post this in dog behaviour - you may get more answers.

    Have you had her checked over to make sure she is physically ok? any problems with hearing or eyesight might make her nervous of sudden movement

    I agree with Brody's Mum. Go to the vet and check his hearing and sight. He might be either deaf or blind. This can cause a dog to get frightened really easily. Hope this helps and good luck!
    Thank you so much for my siggy, kittycats_delight!
