Dogs not bonding anymore?

[Sheltie.Mama]

I just got a puppy.. And she gets along with Tarra great! But.. Neither if them pay attention to people! Tarra won't pay attention to me, and Shay won't pay attention to people! How do I get them to start bonding with people?

This relates to one of your previous posts--in this case it is imperative to spend individual time with each dog--a lot of it.

You need to make sure that all good things come through you, whether it's playing with their favorite toy, a training session, a good long walk, etc.

Yep -- the previous thread on this has a lot of tips.

There's time to allow them to play, time to separate (like for naps and night crating), and time to work with them separately.

One on one time with both is really important right now.
