Hi All
Update on Bobby.
I am not sure what i was doing but i just do it.
Yesterday, i took him out of that corner and block the corner from preventing him going back in.
Next, i tied him up next to the hose. I used the fleas and ticks treament shampoo and get him all clean up. His hair was terribly damage, all stick together like glue was in there. I don't think he ever got cleaned or groom before. Aanyway, at first, he was just a bit scare but a while he just sit there and let me clean. (question, should i just cut away the bad hair?)
After the bath, i tied him in the middle of the backyard and let him sit and dry. In the evening, i start to comb his hair...OMG...FULL BIG BAG!!!! TOOK me good 75mins just to comb his hair and still not complete, on the thigh and back, need extra work and grooming. I will do it this weekend. He smells and looks much better now!!!! Good Work to Myself
Next, i brought in my female (Bonnie) and just let her run around. I still sit beside Bobby and talked to him. I prepare the food for them and then i unleash Bobby. He still stay there, not running anywhere but keep on observing my moves. After that, i went into the house and observe from inside.
It tooks about 5 minutes, Bobby started to move and go for the meal with Bonnie. After the meal, Bobby was kind of exploring the backyard for a while. Probably marking his territorry by peeing (but action like the female, instead of back leg up). Bonnie kept on playing with him, but he got no reaction. Approx 20 mins went by, i finally see him wiggle his tail and walk side by side with Bonnie and both play a bit. However, he is still not that active compare to Bonnie. Anyway, good start.
But i find that he has no problem with ANIMAL but to human. At one point, i stand in front of the door and he noticed me and in the ready position to run. Once i open the door, he run and look for place to hide, but finally he went into the dog house!!
Alright, that's all for today...i think it's good start. As long as he is happy with Bonnie...but hope he will get well with me.
I also consulted a professional and he told me he is not neccessary physically abused. I went home and gave him few test and he seems ok. Tests like trying to hit him, trying to kick him, he wasn't trying to turn away when i was pretending hitting him. He said, Bobby might just never interact with other human being beside the breeder. But one thing we both agreed is he probably underfed. He is 19 months and is way smaller than Bonnie 15 months, yet he is male, normally bigger than the female.
Anyway, will post more updates.
THANKS
