Hi everyone,
After having Libby for almost four weeks now, I have noticed that she gets scared by anything and nothing. Ever since I got her, she is always looking for a place to hide, and barks excessively. Is this normal for a Basset puppy? I don't recall my Golden Retriever being so scared all the time at that age, and I got him at eight weeks old too.
Libby's always hiding behind me and trembles, under my Golden (who gets annoyed by it), my husband, just about anyone. I took her to the vet and there's nothing wrong. She turns 12 weeks today. I hope that this behavior isn't a sign of aggression. If I try to move her she will bark or release an exaggerated cry just for moving her. She is playful at times, but then comes this behavior out of no where, it makes you wonder if you did something wrong. I don't know what to do and if this is normal behavior.
