[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This will sound very odd, but what helped my dog reactive dog, was taking her to the dog park. She stopped seeing all dogs as her enemy, and as a result she stopped lunging at dogs while on a leash. after the dog park I realized that the leash was 90% of the problem. She was off leash and the dog park and had no issues at all [/quote]

This is also how my dog was. Off leash had few problems with other dogs but on leash was very fearful and reactive, I think because she felt she couldn't get away. Unfortunately, off leash didn't translate to on leash. [/quote]

My dog too-- we've decided she's a frustrated greeter. The problem is that she's a mini schnauzer so her bark is high pitched lunacy and sounds aggressive which freaks people out. So, any opportunity to greet is usually squashed as other dog owners try to get away from us. The dog park helped and there are usually a few confident dog owners who recognize the issue and invite her to say hello to their (usually much larger and calmer) dogs. That helps.
