[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have seen large reactive dogs on walks in my neighborhood and the owner is doing absolutely nothing to stop the behavior. All they need to do is get the dog to sit, distract them / block their view of the passer by who they're barking at and reward them for sitting still. We did this with our dog and it worked. And he was huge and strong. It's like these owners don't even know the word "no" and aren't willing to try it.[/quote] Way to generalize! Not all dogs care about food rewards or can be distracted. Just like kids, some dogs have challenging personalities. Also note this doesn’t work when two dogs passing have the same issue. So many times in our neighborhood the owner chooses this method and forces the other dog to walk by.[/quote]
