Our visit with Dr. Sell
So, we have definitely found our new vet. She is amazing - we really like her. She is a vet and dog trainer. She spent a lot of time with us and really watched Kuma's behavior. He didn't need to be muzzled because she was quite slow and calm with him. He didn't enjoy it by any means but he put up with it.
She thinks we have possessive issues...which we kind of already knew. She also says that he is quite fearful and needs to build confidence. Which is true but we never have really thought a lot about it.
So, our goals are to work on the food issues. She thinks we need to feed him less and see how that goes. We are going to work on trading toys - he does this well with us already but we are going to work more on it.
We are also going to have more people over and help him have more positive experiences...especially with children. We're going to try to avoid the stranger reaching for his head business - which is REALLY hard.... everyone seems to come right up to him and it's just not the right thing for at this stage.
