Canine Behavior/My poodle needs help!

We adopted a standard poodle at 3 years of age.  He too was paranoid and it took a lot of time and patience to get him to interact with us.  He still has a few "quirks" but is the best dog that we have ever owned (he is our third standard).  Love and patience are necessary.

Expertise

Puppy questions about House Training, Crate Training, Play-biting? Please visit my website. Site address is http://www.howsbentley.com.

I will answer all questions about canine behavior and training, training methods and equipment. Be ready to provide dog's name, age, sex, breed and how long you have owned the dog. In addition, it'd be great for me to know how long the problem has been occurring, what you have tried to solve the problem(s) and what were the results.

The more information you provide me - the better equipped I will be to offer sound, helpful advice! Thank you.
