i adopted a papillon 6months ago (actually found him on the beach, no collar, no chip, nothing) so i took him in along with my other dog (maltipoo).
when i first took him in he has severe seperation anxiety but we managed to get rid of that in a months time.
the problem is he is scared of everything, when i first adopted him everytime i wanted to pet him he would lay down and wait to be hit, which proves to me he was abused.
we live in the city where temperatures are 50 celcius through the summer so u see why i cant keep taking them outside.so we got them used to peeing and pooping on the balcony (as we have 2 and dont use 1 of them) anyway my maltipoo will always do her business there but the papillon will NOT go out if it is windy or raining or when its night fall, he refuses to go out and just does his business in them house, but he goes out if its daylight and no wind or rain.
last night we started getting desert storms and it will last a while and i dont want him doing his stuff all over the house, i need some help how to make him stop being scared so much and get him to go out there even if theres a storm. please help
