NP: also some dogs are still training/learning so they still bark/react until they learn the ropes or complete proper training. The owner is not necessarily “not doing anything” about the behavior. For example ours was reactive like this as a puppy (up until 9-12 months depending on the day- improved over time and with professional training help). A year later, she is awesome. Totally perfect even if another dog is going crazy.  But it doesn’t always happen in a day, and in the meantime those dogs still need to be walked….and FWIW Im referring to a properly restrained dog who is barking etc at other dogs passing (which is a nuisance rather than a safety issue)[/quote]

This!  I have a 1.5 yr old rescue who has been with me for 2 weeks. He is smart and learning but has clearly not had much experience in the world. Pretty sure he spent most of his time crated. Meanwhile in 2 weeks He can already do a long “stay” in the absence of distractions. But right now he is very overexcited by other dogs and leash walking is a challenge. We’re working on it- it doesn’t happen overnight![/quote]
