You should not have to use physical force if you follow the dog whispers advice. He would nip at the dog with his hand and make the dog stay away from him until the dog calmed down.
Your body language should tell the dog that you are not playing.
It's important that you stay calm assertive, do not show emotion. They pick up on that and it is a sign of weakness.
In other words, never let them see you sweat. LOL |
