[quote=Anonymous]He needs serious training, and your parents need to hire a trainer specialized in large dogs, and do their homework with him. Make it a condition of your visits, period. My own large dog was the same, and we had to train him. He’s still unpredictable when he’s excited, so I’m very careful with kids, strollers, wheelchairs, the elderly and basically all strangers, because I don’t know who has a hidden vulnerability! He is never unleashed outside, and is not allowed to rush to the door by himself to greet people. When he’s calm, he’d allow any human to perform surgery on him, practically! But get him excited and it’s another story. I don’t hesitate in crating him if there are too many people in the house. You’ll notice that great leeway is offered to small dogs, who are allowed such behaviors because they don’t hurt anyone. But having a large dog means being stricter, just because injury potential is so much greater. Your parents need to understand that. [/quote]
