I also have a Yorkie who at age one deceided he did not like Big Dogs any longer! Who knows why. He was friendly with a huskie since a puppy and one day after his first birthday while walking him he went nuts seeing his friend
which starled me to death, broke away from me and actually attacked the husky! I almost fained on the spot! Was this my dog? Since then every big
dog he wanted a piece of! It's been three years and we are still working on this. He has gotten much better but I have to see the dog before he does then I can talk to him while we pass. He seems to fear them. Never been
attacked or scared in any way just deceided this on his own.
I have watched Ceaser and Victoria and did my best to follow their lead.
It actually works but you have to show them your not afraid and be their
leader. Calm and assertive Ceaser says.
As long as your dog has no underlying problems after being checked by
a vet you have to become knowledgable and use your common sence
on knowing what your dog can tolorate. Taking him unleasehed to a park
is not an option.


Going to the vet's or groomer ,when he did go, was never a problem
if a big dog was there. Only on our walks.

Good luck.
