I have been very close to my dog since we got him, but due to work pressure, my partner had a few weeks where she was sat with him most of the time.
Now I noticed he is quite distant from me, doesn’t want to be pet by me, maybe just play, what kind of things can I do to earn back that bond with my dog?
I was thinking about hand feeding, but not sure if it is strange to suddenly hand feed after not doing it for months, likewise I don’t know how my partner should behave to help me get more of a bond towards him (I live alone, she has just been live in for a few weeks as a favour).
I’m now getting more free time after work to spend with him, so would like to give him some nice experiences. He isn’t really big on walking, and often sits down to take rests before only wanting to walk in the direction of home. Would love to encourage him more to stay outside and enjoy for me than 10 minutes at a time.
