[quote=Anonymous]Just got back from a walk with my DH and our large dog (leashed).  While we were walking on the sidewalk in a quiet neighborhood, another large dog (unleashed) from a house across the street comes tearing across his yard, across the street and onto the sidewalk - barking at us.  We held still and he sniffed our dog's side and his butt.  Our dog held still until the other dog started snarling and snapping.  Our dog growled but my DH got in front of him (DH was holding the leash) and between him and the unleashed dog.  My DH squared his shoulders to the unleashed dog and yelled loudly at him.  The unleashed dog backed off but kept barking/snarling at us and his hair was standing up all along his back.  My DH held his arms out, yelled again and the dog ran back to his house.  Throughout all of this, our dog remained calm and uninvolved.  You CAN train your dog out of leash aggression even when faced with an aggressive dog. As Cesar says, it's never dog, it's the owner.
