#dog - #Dog is refusing/scared to walk


Dog is refusing/scared to walk

So we rescued (at the time) 5 month old Husky/Shepard mix. He would do fine on walks and be next to his pack mate (8 YO purebred Husky rescue).

About two weeks ago, I was walking him and gardeners had a lawnmower going. He FLIPPED out. Pulled so hard, he would have pulled out of his leash if he didn't have a harness on him. I was able to walk him but they were turning into shorter walks because cars with tires on wet asphalt made him uneasy, then it was the UPS truck starting up. Well it turns into today where I can barely get him about 100 steps out of the house where he puts on the brakes and is almost choking himself to get back to the house.

We were hoping to have another runner on our hands (and even named him Miles) like our other one, but how have others handled dogs being scared outside and overcoming those fears?
