@thinkingcanine: What do you think… should they have been upset? Could it have been handled differently? Big dogs can be scary looking and it only takes a movement for a major issue to happen. #reactivedog #dogparents #dogsoftiktok
In these situations it doesn’t even matter if the dog is the most well behaved dog on the planet. There’s no way for the other people or dog to know that.

No matter how well your dog is trained, a leashed area is a leashed area.

The way he runs at the white dog in the end

the way he also runs at the white dog at the end? seems like the dog isn’t fully reliable to listen to commands and could very easily hurt the little dog that walked past or one of the older people whilst trying to get to the other dog. totally irresponsible imo

I’m more concerned about that dog watching the couple and not the handler :)

There’s so many leashes that would allow you to practice a down stay in public too. So many training leashes out there are for this sort of thing specifically and are also designed to give you control of your dog.

there is nothing that makes me more upset than taking my dog on a walk and someone using us for their training 😭😭 well… other than people who interrupt us when we’re clearly training lol

People are setting their dogs up for failure and then getting mad after pushing the dogs boundaries

My Aussie is selective and will react to some dogs. A dog like that who stares him and our female Aussie down would set him off. This would end badly for us. We never have our Aussies off their leashes though and when we see other dogs or humans approach we stop and ask our Aussies to sit next to us and face us or away from the stimulation until it is gone. We use high value treats as rewards for calm behavior and our Aussies know “look at mama” translates to “look at mama and then get an amazing piece of dried duck”.

This! Also you can train your dog on a longer leash? I have a little sausage dog and the amount of times she’s been knocked over (and cried!) is ridic. They usually say ‘oh he’s friendly’ how do you expect a big dog and a tiny one to play safely? My dog is super nervous and just wants to be left alone not traumatised 😭

I've always shouted ahead at the approaching dog walker and ask if it's okay to use their dog as a training exercise ♡

our rule off leash, is if anyone comes near or in eye sight, the dogs come to me and sit. I even hold collars typically just to make the other people feel comfortable for when the pass. its not others people's job to guess and hope my dog is well trained. and sometimes people want to pet them, especially the dane. which is fine but her procedure is to let people come to her, then she can get all the loving. but with a dog that size, it's terrifying to many people. even if she is the sweetest, they don't know that and shouldn't have to risk it if she isn't.

you're definitely right and Kilo used to be so much nicer, but he had so many setbacks when he was younger

csnt stand this behsviour. Just coz you can doesn't mean you should. all of mine will do down stay but always go back on a lead. its irrelevant the size BTW, I own large breeds, small dogs are equally an issue.
