Moose is a GREAT pup and he walks on the leash well. We have a pinch collar for him so he doesn't pull to much. Now my problem is when I walk him and another dog starts barking at him he fixates on that dog a get very aggressive thru the fence with the other dog. Now this is what I do.
1. I walk him by the fence on the sidewalk and firmly tell him be nice.(he knows this means to be good)
2. If he starts to fight thru the fence I yank him with the command NO and make him sit.
3. I make him sit next to the fence until he relax and then proceed to walk. If he starts up again I do everything all over again.
Now I try to get his attention off the other dog but it takes a while. Is there somethingI am doing wrong or something else I can do?
I won't leave the area until he totally listens to me.
Please any advise I would like to hear (Lisa, Carrie or anyone)
