Hi Jen

I think this is spot on - as I mentioned - bruno totally has picked up on my nervous tension and thus has just aggravated his antisocial behaviour - After his class on thursday I have been far more relaxed. We have just returned from a walk - a dog came charging over from the other side of the park - I actually had bruno on his extension and harness rather than the check collar as I was letting him run about and normally in this instance I would have been panicking and reining him in - I didnt and the dog came bouncing up to Bruno's face they ahve a wee flailing of paws at each other - the other dogs wanting to play - and Bruno didnt do ANYTHING =- he normally would have attacked - all beacuse I didnt tense up, shout at him or anything else - amazing and very simple but true !!

its worth a try but I know its so hard to not tense up

i totally understand the replies here about dogs reacting different to the person who has them out
i kinda get hyper if a new dog comes up to mine (ok with dogs i know) and i know i send the vibes down lead to my dogs tho keira is so laid back it don't bother her but lubo aint so i have to try for his sake to act calm
hubby keeps telling me ...i love walking the dogs but not with you
says i over react
