This beautiful dog is named Sprocket.
Due to Parvo in his early weeks of life he is a bit developmentally delayed. Sadly, Sprocket has developed intense fears of moving objects, particularly cars, bikes, motorcycles and skateboards. He can be extremely anxious on walks.
We are working on conditioning him to feel less afraid of these things one item at a time. Today he had a successful
Session with Cars at a park, entering at a consistent pace and at a distance he felt comfortable with. He also had some high value treats!
For an 11 month old Irish Setter I am hopeful we can work through his fears but we have to be patient. He is really scared.
Sprocket is definitely worth it. He is super friendly, loving, sweet, funny and smart. Not to mention his owners are on the ball and doing a fabulous job with his training!
Cheers to Sprocket!!!!
