Koa
Hi Ckranz, Mattie, and Emmabeth, First I want to thank you all so much for all you input. It is great. Now, to answer your questions: I have people call when they are coming over so I know what time to expect them. A minute or two before they come I put the Gentle Leader on Koa and say "We have...

Koa
Hi, Yes, I have the Gentle Leader on him when people come over because he nipped my neighbor and I can't take the chance of it happening again. Granted she bent over him in our front yard, and he did not liked it. I do have a Gentle Walker, but have not used it lately because I want to control his h...

My GSD Lunges at visitors
Hello All, I have a two year old GSD who lunges at visitors when they come and go. The facts are these: History: Koa was at a puppy mill until he was 7 1/2 months old, then saved by Save A Dog, and we adopted him at 8 months old. Needless to say he had some issues. Progress: Considering he could not...

Fear agression
I am interested in the answers you get. I have a GSD with the same problems, but it is much worse when someone comes to my home.
I am going to try the protocol for deference program my vet gave to me. I hope it works.

Hi, I can certainly understand everyone's views, but I have to say I agree with Victoria. There is no doubt that JD loved Galaxy with all his heart, but I could definatly see the little bit of stressfullness in Galaxy, even though she did great. I think the body language was all there. I loved the s...

Let's try this again
Hi Jenni, I just submitted a post and the subject was "chicken", and never mentioned it. I was going to say, I saw IMOTD last week and saw where Victoria used chicken and a whistle to get a dog to come. I do call Koa and he is pretty good about coming back, but not 100%, so after the show ...

Chicken
Hi Jenni, Congradulations on the new pup. The first few months are a little tough, but you get what you put into it. I replied to your post about Chaos and did not realize this was one of your first posts. I have only made a couple myself. The forum is great. I had an 11 year old GSD that died last ...

Chaos/Rainbow bridge
Hi Jenni, I am in the US also, and I had not heard about the Rainbow Bridge until my GSD died last summer. It is a poem written about when a dog dies and goes to a place where any of his past on friends and owner are waiting for him, or if he goes first, he is waiting when :cry: they get there. I am...

Chaos
Hi, It is so hard to lose a dog, especially one so young. I am trying to picture Chaos. Can someone remind me what he looked like. If it is the dog I am thinking about, he had so much energy and seemed so happy. Just think of the good like you gave him and how he made you happy. Take care Liz
