I followed your link to your dog & I have a question for you. I have a great GSD too. Hunter is two years old & has his CGC & his TDI. He's an awesome guy! But,like your dog, he is also dog-reactive -and almost only when he's on a leash too. When we have other dogs over to our house he is always fine. I'm curious how you worked him out of that behaviour. I feel like it's partly his ego & partly insecurity (maybe something to do with the pressure of being on-lead & having me right there with him?), And when I correct him, he stops right away, but by then, people (especially people who aren't used to dogs) are already freaked out. I would so appreciate any tips you could share for this challenge. Thanks!
I created this blog to document my increasing & somewhat obsessive, involvement with cycling. As I commute via bicycle, I have been given the space to think and thus this blog was born. As a novice cyclist, you will read about my trials & tribulations with cycling fashion & weekly mileage goals, along with tackling San Francisco hills at 6:30a.m.
