My fiance and I took our first german shepherd puppy home on Friday night. We are currently in the proccess of crate training him and teaching him to eliminate outside on command. Although he has made unbelievable progress, we are still experiencing an odd behavior.
Our pup is displaying an odd behavior. He will not go into direct sunlight what so ever and cries uncontrollably when brought into the sunlight. He will walk in the shade but will not go into the sun. I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced odd behavior such as this? Is this just a stage and will it pass?
Housebreaking the poor guy is almost impossible because he won't relieve him when it is sunny. Any help, advice and or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Thanks for your time,
Randall and Jennifer
