When we brought phog home he "reacted" to dogs on walks -- we think he just was curious or wanted to play - but I am a scrawny 60ish woman and he is a big boy - here is our solution(that I have to say works awesome). We carry snacks in our pockets - when he would see another dog coming and started to "react" we reached in our pocket and kept the treat in hand just out of his grasp until we got by the others. Then he got the snack if he walked focused on the treat not the dogs coming. It took him about one time to get trained perfectly . The boy loves his treats! We've had him a year and a half and he has perfect manners now . Yep - as soon as he sees another dog coming he starts turning around and asking for his 'good boy treat'.

I am SO happy to read this - we both had great happy endings to 'watching and waiting!' I know pizza joint will give you as much joy as phog has added to our home.....and it is truly special that we glimpsed a part of their life that I had never experienced with any of our other adopted greys. I'm so happy for you and can't wait to read pizza joint is home and see pictures!!!! Teri
