Two questions...
1. Is it normal for a GS puppy to get really attached to one person? Chevy loves attention and playing with all of us but if I leave the room, he follows me or cries when he can't see me/be near me, even if my husband and kids are playing with him or giving him attention.
2. When company comes over, Chevy wants nothing to do with them. He sniffs them for a second or two and if they try to pet him, he walks away and more often than not, comes by my side. He shows no aggression (ie. barking, growling, etc.) and doesn't act scared (no tail between legs, crying, etc). I thought puppies were supposed to love company and all that attention they bring? We haven't socialized him much, besides company coming over, in the 6 days we've had him since we've all been under the weather. Could the lack of socialization be it?
