I try to expose Jackson to everything he possibly can and he doesn't really have any barking issues when it comes to new things because of this fact.... |
I was just talking in general about horses and dogs. As long as a dog is on a leash it is safe to let them smell each other. It is the barking, nipping dogs that horses usually like to kick at.
