Lunging German Shepherd!!!

Post by sula1961 »

Can anybody help me or give me some advise please. I have a lovely white German Shepherd, and I am experiencing some problems with him, especially lunging at other dogs when he is on his lead. If we are out, on an off lead walk, he is absolutely fine. An example that I experienced with him today was at the vets. I just took him to get weighed, and when we got there, there was a very calm labrador, that he didn't initially react to. He sniffed him and then lay down next to me, suddenly, he turned around and lunged at the other dog aggressively. I managed to pull him away with a firm no, a few seconds later he turned on the dog again. He will sometimes do this when we are on a walk. Does anyone else have a similar problem, if yes, can you please advise on how you resolved it.

Thank you
