What do I do?
She's a rescue dog, and we got her 4 years ago. She didn't show any signs of being ill treated and we were told she hadn't been. In fact she was very well trained.
But she is afraid of my feet. Just my feet. My DP's aren't a problem.
She looks scared, her eyes roll and she will growl and snap at them if they come too close, but doesn't usually make contact. She has slightly punctured the skin once, when I must have put a foot on her when we were both deeply asleep. I don't think that really counts.
She is absolutely not agressive and neither am I! She is clearly scared, but I have never and would never kick her. Obviously I don't know about her past and it looks like someone else has.
What can I do to teach her that my feet are not dangerous?
