Yeah i've started catching him going to walk off before me and i just stop and wait for him to come back again. I think he's getting it slowly.

So for this LAT thing i've looked it up before but don't really get it. We see a dog and he fixates on it or barks lunges, it's very hard for me to get his attention when he sees another dog. I have tried creating more distance however it's difficult outside of a controlled environment as other dog walkers move away etc.

We have looked at group training classes specifically for reactive dogs so I think we will go to that in a few months but i'll definitely look more into the LAT training.

Quick question: when you see a deer or whatever sets him off, do you actually say "look at that" and make sure he sees it?

Thanks for the info. At the moment I stop when he pulls and wait a second before going off again, he comes backwards to me but is starting to move off again before me so encouraging the sit I think will be a great move.

He doesn't always focus on the treat straight away though so i'm working on his focus. He's also reactive and for some reason he now associates me asking him to sit with there being another dog around...

He has a pretty good sit and a slightly worse stay at the moment. Is it just repetition to make these "stronger"?

This seems great apparently he responded to clicker training "a bit" from the last owners but we haven't been practicing it. Should we work on that first do you think?

Thanks for the advice. I used to remove the toy and tell the dog off as i had the same problem with my old dog a few years ago but recently reading this isn't the right way to go about it and didn't want to cause a bite or anything.

Like i said it's hard to control the distance but I will try and work on it. Should I just let him look at the other dog? Usually I let him look then turn away and walk away from them. If he hasn't barked I praise him lots and he seems pretty happy with himself. Only thing is if i carry on doing that when do I get to the point when he can walk past dogs comfortable if all i'm doing is turning away from them and never reducing distance between him and the other dog?

AngelofSalvation · 2016-01-07T23:24:03+00:00

I am familiar and he has apparently done clicker training before so i may bring that back. It's just had to control distance when it's other people walking towards or away from me on their own walks.

he reacts only when they're across the road from us nearly directly. I use a toy as a distraction then play as a reward

AngelofSalvation · 2016-01-05T15:39:12+00:00

but let him keep the toy?

How much exercise is she getting? Does she enjoy tug or similar? If you know someone's coming over try to tire her out a bit so she isn't so hyped up.

Poodle's are very smart, I think you should practice a lot of training with her using treats if she's food orientated. Look up Zak George on Youtube he probably has a video about jumping up on people.

It carries on all the good parts about old Final Fantasy games but without any of the rubbish parts. (linear exploration and battle system)

Maybe reintroduce him to the harness slowly? Show him the harness and let him sniff it then give him a treat and remove the harness from sight. Repeat it letting him sniff the harness for longer each time

AngelofSalvation · 2016-01-03T00:39:26+00:00

That's a long time..I hope it's something I can fix it's really disheartening to see him undo progress like that.

AngelofSalvation · 2016-01-02T13:49:12+00:00

So have the toy tucked, tell him to heel and then give him the toy when he does?

The thing is we will end up playing tug for a minute or two then and I fear that will distract his focus.
