In my experiences, these little guys are so stubborn and honestly if I'm walking my older more aggressive boy on a leash I will keep it very short and stop walking if he is showing aggression to people walking by or other dogs. If there is a much bigger dog I will pick him up and stop walking until they have passed by. Seems to have shown him to not be afraid and that the intimidation will pass and he will be fine. Now he doesn't bark or will bark at first but then he stops and watches the "threat" walk by and we move on. |
