Thanks for the words of advice guys
He was very bad this morning talk about velcro'd to my leg
But i still took him to the park and although it took three times as long and twice as many treats, we got there in one piece with not too much whining. Coming home he was like a rabbit out of a trap, but I kept stopping and making him sit till he calmed down before we moved on, and I think it must have worked because second walk was easier and the third he was back to enjoying himself
Penny I shall get hold of the remedies when Im next in the chemist. I have never used them personally but I know of many people who swear by them - thanks for the tip
Lizzy, the thing which made me worried is Alfie is by no means timid usually. He really is quite bold and fearless. Hes was trying to do the stairs at 10weeks and after more then one tumble conqured them on Tuesday
Crikey the way he usually tears around the house crashing into everything I was thinking i would need to get him a crash helmet
And today he stood his ground when an inquisitive great dane came over for a looksie
So for him to become so jumpy and clingy, really bought home how scared he had been and of course I was between a rock and a hard place as to whether to comfort him.
But anyway looks like the crises has passed and hes back to "normal". Once again thanks for the support
