I was scared in the fact that it caught me off guard, not that I caved in. I stood my ground and he stopped and calmed down. I think its all a learning experience and in no way feel that this woull entitle me as a bad pet owner. I think owning a rottie can be scary if it is your first time since if raised wrong, some can be mean. I also stated I was looking for advise so that I can nip it in the bud. I will not allow this behavior, I was simply asking for advice to see if it was normal..
And Stuart has all the shots needed to enter this puppy class. It's a requirement to be enrolled. I dont see a difference in letting him play with other dogs and teaching him to sit, come, etc. on my own, or having a teacher help us do things right.
Thanks
