Well, after 3 days Magnus has fitted in really well. He is getting used to his new name, will sit and sometimes lay down when told. However he's a different dog on a lead, pulling, won't sit and barks at everything. So will be needing @T_C_E expertise to cure this, I think.0

He's testing you out, to see if you are going to boss him or he going to take charge. He's telling all the dogs and anyone else that will listen, this my new dad, stay away. Easy to stop, but bloody long winded to type all out. I've got an space on Monday (chargeable at my field) or Tuesday (free) out in the street. Either way your welcome.guinnessaddick said:Well, after 3 days Magnus has fitted in really well. He is getting used to his new name, will sit and sometimes lay down when told.

@guinnessaddick Our the 8 year old Granddaughter walking two dogs. To small to walk alongside them she has walk between them. Notice she is correcting the dogs when they walk ahead or start to wander, sometimes she is a little too stern with them but they have to be corrected or they will take the piss.

If you are using a one handed lead you will struggle, imo dogs should walk alongside you, not in front. The loop of the lead in the hand furthest from the the dog, the hand nearest the dog taking up any slack. Any movement by the dog (lunging etc) should corrected across the body by the hand furthest from the dog in a checking motion, not hard to hurt the dog but firm enough to register. Also people make this situation worse by giving the dog eye contact which excites an already excitable dog and makes jump for attention. Once again it's difficult to explain in typed form, easier to show.Showmetheway2gohome said:Our Ned Hungarian visla loverly dog can’t stop him jumping up at people any suggestions cheers.

Best way to describe him at the moment, Charlton off the lead, spanner on it.1 - Sponsored links:

Excellent, Ray. If only all dogs owners would go through this, along with recall, sit and quiet.T_C_E said:@guinnessaddick Our the 8 year old Granddaughter walking two dogs.

OK, she's getting there but not very much contact with dogs. Got over the initial fears, and now has a younger sister who is a bit more gung ho, so she's leading and Mia follows.T_C_E said:

We also inherited a feisty, aged cat, and we've got them used to stroking her now. So, all is looking good.

Now 4 years into JJ's rehabilitation to get over his fear of small dogs, he will now walk past them on the same side of the road without reaction. However if the lunge or bark at him he's coming back with both barrels, no lunging but he will bark. So we are making progress and won't give up with him.

My little JJ would test him, he goes for big dogs! Seriously, I would like to correct this behaviour,0

Our boy has gone through the wars lately. Had his nuts off then had to have surgery for bladder stones. Turned out they had missed one that had got stuck at the end of his nob. So had to flush it back and he now has a hole at the base of his nob which he pees out of

We have other dogs, Bailey and Valli who can help to start the rehabilitation process. I often find the handler has no idea what to do when it starts or how to prevent it before it happens. We have a 100% success rate with introduction of dogs to my dogs within an hour. You are welcome to come down if want to! These to little guys met Bailey in 30 minutes and off lead.MuttleyCAFC said:My little JJ would test him, he goes for big dogs! Seriously, I would like to correct this behaviour,

Scooby will 15 in June - his back legs are really weak now and most he can do is the end of our street and back for a walk - I used to take him Cliffe Marshes for 5 hour walks 😢 he still looks good though for his age - had his hair cut this week and very proud of it he is (my daughter put the heart on the picture, not me !!)8 - Sponsored links:

Bailey will ignore or tell the dog off it persists with a bark and normally when the play is not reciprocal it starts to calm, Valli being younger will want to play along but has a shorter fuse. Quite often owners make a big thing about releasing their dogs with other dogs, in our classes our dogs walk on the leads together and when the dogs are calm slowly unclip the leads without looking at or talking to the dog which heightens any excitements. Being able to read your and other dogs behaviour sadly something that's missing down here often results in fights, shouting out from distance "it's ok, he's friendly" as a dog runs up to another dog and gets in its face is a sure fire way of starting a fight. Even a friendly dog will potentially get the hump when approached full on and face to face.cafcpolo said:@T_C_E Out of curiosity, how do Bailey and Valli react to dogs that are well excited? Mine would be like a pig in sh...t if he was left off lead with another dog.0 -
Spent an hour with @T_C_E yesterday with Magnus.
It was a great benefit to me and my family, along with Magnus. Problems we had were pulling on lead and recall New lead and collar ordered, being a rescue dog, I’ve been worried about letting him off the lead when in the woods. We’ve only had him since NYD, it’s going to take a time.
Anyway, thanks again to @T_C_E0 -
Lovely to see you again G and meet your family. Magnus is a quick learner and you all took what I explained and put it into practice very quickly and we could see it starting to work in a short time. Even a little recall and off lead walking from Magnus and meeting all my dogs wasn't too much for him. Firm but fair with our dogs and pays dividends keep it going and you'll finish up with beautifully behaved boy.guinnessaddick said:Spent an hour with @T_C_E yesterday with Magnus.

We've got a very boisterous and strong 18 month GSD. Socialised and generally ok with other dogs but goes absolutely nuts if he sees foxes or cats when out. Wife has been pulled over twice by his efforts to get after the fox. I struggle to hold him as well. Any ideas or tips to cure this type of behaviour?0

I have had 3 border collies over the last 30 years. My current collie, named Wilson, is 11 years old. Never had a lead on any of them after 8 months of age, under any circumstances. All three have had a wonderful nature.SuedeAdidas said:Cheers - although end of month may be a bit soon........i gotta do some research first. Also very keen to ensure that I purchase from a reputable breeder,

unfortunately for ourselves our dog will often spot their target before we do and while we have let our mind wander onto something other than what we are doing or we are busy chatting to our walking partner/s. Spotting offending cats/dogs/bikes/joggers before our dogs do is the solution, we distract our dogs from cat/fox from it before it sees it rather than react to after it has seen it.
More difficult to explain than demonstrate, if your local I'll willing help you and your wife.
