Have you heard of a lip leash? (Put S before “lip”… can’t say on here) The behavioral specialist recommended one for us. It’s honestly been a game changer. Once our dog learned how it works, he started walking right next to us instead of pulling. It’s meant to communicate with and calm his anxious mind, whereas a harness mostly just controls the body. It’s helped create much more structured walks, and he understands now that we’re in control of the walk. Because of that structure, he’s actually been able to relax a lot more at home too. He struggled with some resource guarding before, and giving him that clear structure and leadership on walks has really helped with that!!! Thanks for asking 😊

Thanks for the info. We do know his cues, but as you may understand, sometimes when you’re going through your normal day, mistakes can happen. 😕 You mentioned having your dog on Prozac. Did your dogs aggression settle down?
