DDog is a 4 year old Tibetan terrier who we’ve had since a puppy. He is reactionary to male dogs who have not been neutured. He has never bitten one but has growled and shown teeth etc so I decided to introduce a muzzle
The difference in his behaviour has been quite amazing. Dogs that we’ve met before and he has reacted to he now glances at, maybe gives a filthy look and then moves on.
It’s been suggested that the difference is in me as I’m more relaxed knowing he is muzzled and cannot bite and he then senses my relaxed state and so doesn’t react.
Is there any training that I can I do to try and change his behaviour for good so that he doesn’t have to be muzzled for life?
