Alandog is soo much better now than when we first got her. Slowly, after lots of BAT and clicker, she will walk past other dogs without a negative reaction. It's been fine for weeks now so I think we've cracked that side.
However, I'm not sure what to do for the next stage. She is happy off or on lead to sniff other dogs, in fact she pulls enthusiastically to say hello. But it's like she doesn't know what to do after the sniff so snaps at the dog, she has just gone up to, to tell it to back off!?
I'm wondering if muzzling her will help her see that saying hello and playing doesn't need warning snaps. And that other dogs aren't going to fight her. ( these are 'safe' dogs we know) . Is it a bad idea?
