SHELTIELUVER asked: I have a 10 month old Sheltie. We’ve taken about 10 classes and she is doing wonderful except for one thing, she’s afraid of the see-saw. She’ll get on it and walk maybe a couple of steps and then just freezes. I’ve tried coaxing her with praise and putting treats every few inches to no avail! If I go to the other side and put it down for her, she will finish it but she won’t use her own weight to get it down. I’m getting frustrated! We had problems with the dog walk for a while but after she discovered she can do it, she’s a pro now! Does it just take some dogs a while to be confident about some of the obstacles? Like, some dogs **** the chute or if the tunnel is turned but she loves them! Should I try making a see-saw to practice with at home, anybody know how to make one? Oh, she isn’t afraid of the see-saw noise but the movement. Help!!!
