Hi Tammie! My husband and I have a sweet male beagle mix that is going to be six years old this year. He was a pretty normal puppy when we first got him, maybe a little on the shy side... Unfortunately, when we left the house for a few hours one of our water pipes burst in the same room he was confined in (this happened within a month of adding him to the family, so he was still a young puppy). The room was flooded and his demeanor changed to being more clingy and shy/nervous. We've tried a lot of things to make him more confident, but this is just how our boy is and we love him.
My question: Whenever my husband and I hug, our dog likes to move in between us... Why?
Also, whenever either of us are standing around and doing something (dishes, cooking, makeup, etc) our dog also likes to be very close to us to the point of touching or leaning on our leg. Why is this?
