What To Do If You See A Yellow Ribbon on a Dog's Leash | Care2 Causes

Think it will ever catch on?

I think the idea is awesome and would love it this was readily advertised! There would still be those people who would ignore or be ignorant of the meaning of a yellow ribbon! But I love it!

[AngelFae]

I've heard of this before and think that it's a great idea!

This is the same ribbon concept in the horse world. Red ribbon or anything red on the tail of a horse means don't get close, it's a kicker or needs room. You will always have those that ignore it tho and when that happens, you hold on for whatever the horse wants to do. Of coarse that's after a couple verbal warnings.

Our local SPCA has been doing this for years, I think its wonderful

[CouversMom]

I've seen this before and think it's great. It should be advertised more so more people know about it.

This is a wonderful idea because alot of people have a bad habit of petting dogs they don't know and who suffers, The owner If anybody came near our dogs they would probably get licked to death.

I've never heard of it, but I like the idea. We need a yellow ribbon on our front door. It's hard to keep Anna from biting when people walk in without knocking.

As Mama to 3 diabetic, blind dogs, I think this is a fantastic idea! My two girls (Callie, my Yorkie and Sasha my female Bichon) are usually just fine with people coming up to them, but Leo (my male Bichon)is terrified and reacts by snarling and snapping. Often I end up leaving him at home instead of subjecting him to this. Will definitely be trying this!

Great idea! It should definitely be more advertised because I've never heard of it...

good idea, but in all my years of attending dog events have never seen it. I wonder if there is a color that says, PLEASE come pet me, PLEASE say hello. Lola is so funny you can see it in her face, she can not believe it when someone does not want to stop to pet her

Now that's Tibbe. He loves people when out and about and I'm with him and they come at him oohing and aahing and just blossoms from lots of attention - I think he's addicted. But I've watched him outside from afar when I'm not right next to him and he will go the other way when people start toward him.

Ditto!

[YorkOfTheShire]

I LOVE this idea, but sadly I do not feel it is getting (or will get) the attention the dogs it is intended for, deserve.

I almostly adore this idea!. I have never heard of it before today. I was thinking of cancer awareness or some other disease. But this is a great idea.

But I also think big pet shops should sell vests of all different sizes with HUGE LETTERING that says IN Training. We shouldn't have to get them only on-line.
