Is your dog or a dog you know, reactive on a leash, off leash or both?
I find Rocket gets targeted by quite a few little dogs who are scared of his presence - him being a big black dog.
However, he is friendly/tolerant towards all dogs no matter their size, so I feel for him when he gets repeatedly targeted simply because of his physical presence.
I hope this post helps to explain a little bit about what this sort of behaviour is usually based on, and how we should consider others and their dogs if we have a reactive dog
OR
If we let our dog off leash in an on leash area , no matter how friendly they are and they run up to a reactive dog who is on leash, they make it very difficult for that dog and their person who are doing the right thing and both dogs have a negative experience.
I work with a lot of reactive dogs, so if you need helping this regard, please reach out.
Every single dog’s behaviour is individual and requires a tailored behaviour modification and management plan.
