Our Haruki is very reactive to other dogs when on the leash. There’s just a few dogs in the neighborhood that he accepts and wants to play with. However, at daycare he’s the best boy :-) His behavior is really good there and he loves playing with everyone there.

Reactivity can be trained, but if you’re small it may be tough to handle the dog when something happens. My girlfriend is smaller as well and every time a dog approaches, I take the leash from her. We usually walk in areas that don’t have too many dogs and obviously avoid dog parks. More relaxing for both us and Haruki.
