Urr, Lancer's fear-aggression issue is fine in public places (after a LOT of training), as long as other dogs don't start barking at him first. He's learned to pretend they're not there.
Wondering if anyone has experience with dogs fearful of other dogs participating in agility/flyball? I'm interested in getting Lancer into the sports, but I know he wouldn't be able to handle the other dogs, since there are always barky dogs in sports, if he's treated the same as everyone else... but he would excel at the sports though. :s
anyone have solutions for him, whether it's some specific training or something else... or is it just a dead-end?
I have a feeling flyball is a no-go for life, but agility though.. I dont know. :s
edit: To add, Rara has finished a beginner's agility class before, but she doesn't seem to enjoy it much, so we stopped. Lancer is super drivey and focused at anything considered a "job" though, so I was looking around at sports he could possibly play.
