Socializing an older rescue dog that has been neglected.
MY husband an I decided to get a rescue dog that is about 5-6 years old.She is part shepherd/mix.She is so calm and relaxed and that was one of the things we liked about her but after a couple of days we have decided she may need to be socialized more.She will ignore us mostly and she just seems depressed.She doesn't wag her tail for food,toys,praise.We even named her Mellow because she just seems melancholi all the time.I just feel bad for her and I was wondering how we can best help her.We have a one year old blue heeler mix that wants to play with her but she just is not interested.She even has no interest in the small treats we present to her.She does eat and like her crate to sleep in at night and that's about it.We are walking her and showing her a lot of affection.Should we be doing more?
