Question about shy dogs!

[TNT bmc hogdogs]

I got this bmc gyp she is 3 yrs old has a good nose and is very rough, the only problem I have with her is she is very shy what can I do to get her to come around and not be so skiddish, everyday when I feed them I always get in their and let her sometimes put a lead on her and walk her for a bit! Is their anything else I'm missing or what can I do to make her better! Any help will b appreciated! Thanks!

  just keep doing what your doing , try giving her a few pieces of a hotdog or some king of treet when you go around her .  BUT some dogs just never get out of it , AND should not be used in the gene pool .

I've had one that was like that for a long time some of them BMC dogs I've been around are just downright funny about who they trust and how many people they trust. Most of them do not take good to a heavy hand neither. Gotta be patient with them and keep doing what your doing just add treats like halfbreed said. I've got one on the yard now that is not gonna let anyone catch him he does not know really well. And still won't load if they stand by the wheeler/truck just back up and he'll load right up. Just something about the yellas I've seen

Just takes time and patience.............and a soft hand, especially on females.  If you earn their trust you can turn them into pets around you and your family.  although they will almost always stay shy around strangers, which is not always a bad thing.  Once you earn a sensitive dogs trust it is easy to put a whisper command type handle on one.  Good luck.

I took her and a finished dog out yesterday where I had staked a 150 lb boar on the back side of a brush pile, we had no wind but they could smell him both of them had their noses in the air I turned them loose and they finally found him she stayed with my finished dog, my finished dog found him and she is straight catch so far no bark she just ran in and caught! When ur hunting with her she is not as shy as when she is n the kennel so hopefully she will come around. And thanks for all y'all's help again if she works out I'm gonna breed her to my finished hood dog!

I think it helps to put a shy dog on a tie out for a while they seem to come around a lot faster than being in a kennel.

This is kinda mean but it works! I had bought a dog that had not been handled at all and she was close to a year old she was wild as a coyote! I would get in her kennel set on a bucket with her food at my feet. She wanted to come eat but wouldn't while I was in there after a half hour or so I'd pick her bowl up and leave the kennel I'd did the same thing day after day this went on for about a week and a half finally she started getting hungry and would come eat then walk away then come get another bite until she finally stayed and ate the whole bowl when I got this far I'd start trying to pet her whole she ate this didn't go very well but after time I got where I could pet her. This went on for months and months until finally she was just as calm as any other dog I had. Matter of somedays she wouldn't hardly even eat unless I was setting in there with her. She turned into a dang good dog just took awhile before I got to use her

She is kinda coming around in the kennel, I took her hunting Friday night and she is a totally different dog when she is hunting, sometimes she is hard to catch at the bay, but she is slowly coming around, thanks for all y'all's help! So far she has been very rough pretty much straight catch I hope she last for at least 1 litter of pups!
