Hey everyone,

My dog is approaching 8 months and he's overall pretty good. One thing that I can't break him is when he's out playing with other dogs in the grassy area at our apartments, if he spots anyone of my neighbors doors open, he'' run right into their house. When he does this, I quickly run and grab him, put him on his leash, then bring him back to my house and play time's over.

I'm not sure what I can do to break this behavior, any ideas?

Is there a leash rule in your apartment complex? If so, your dog probably shouldn't be off the leash in an unfenced area.

He's young and friendly !! For his safety I'd keep him on leach too . My Ollie is friends with my next door neighbors and their dog , so I have the same problem ...... except he brings their rawhide home and I have to throw it into their yard . Bad dogs !! ( Cute though! )

Teach him a solid recall so when you see him heading over there you can call him back. There are some really good threads on how to do that in the training forum.
