| Re: bad luck or sexual maturity??dog attacks
IMHO, a dog can't be too confident. I have two very confident bitches. No dog ever bothered them in this way.
He should give a good and proper snif back. It's doggy protocol, bad form if he doesn't. He should also look at the other dog. I'd be more concerned if he refused. A good confident, aloof look , however is different than a stare. Liken a stare to a human glare. It's confrontational. It's distainful. It's a challenge.
If that's all true, then let me ask if you tense up? You could be the one giving a cue to both dogs. If you're relaxed and confident it will travel down the leash, most importantly. But it will also be noted by the oncoming dog.
