Embarrassed to walk my dog When it's time to take my dog Riley out for a walk the entire neighborhood knows it. As soon as he sees a person or dog he goes BONKERS!! He barks aggressively, he growls (no teeth showing), he pulls the leash, and he won't quit even after the person has left his line of sight. He'll even continue to bark while he's pooping! Yet, if the person tries to pet him he tries to hide behind me.
I've tried:1. picking him up and covering his eyes 2. turning around and walking the other way 3. Yelling at him 4. Tapping him (that thing Cesar does) 5. and one of those bark off thingys. Nothing seems to work or phase him in the slightest. Once he starts he won't stop until we go back in the house. My fiance refuses to walk him because of all the noise he makes.
What should I do????? |
