ok. I have been goven full responsibility of Buster now that mum has Murphy to work on. So I decided to start it all by walking him through town tomorow to buy lunch.
Now as you all know. Buster is extremley dog agressive outside the yard. Any advice of curbing that behaviour in the long run is appreciated but I know it is going to take a LOT of work.
In the meantime, I am looking for excercises I can try tomorow to help him focus on me and listen to me as I say. I want to make tomorow's walk as fun as it can be as he is VERY jelous now that there are 2 puppies in the house and he isn't centre of attention.
I am willing to put in a good 2 or 3 hours tomorow and take it very slowly. He walks a lot better off leash than on. When off the leash I can usually call him off attacking dogs through fences and such. But when he is on lead he will not calm down. I want to spend some time with him off lead on the way because he learns more when he is realaxed and he can't relax on-lead.
so.. any thing else I should add? i just want a few excercises that he will find fun on the walk tomorow.
