| new people aggression
I am not really sure what to call it, but within the past two weeks Kayne has been getting pretty worked up when I am walking him in the neighborhood when people walk by. He starts barking and running in circles around me and the hair (like a square patch) on his back stands up. This is new and I am not sure what to do with it. I try to refocus him but that doesn't work; he is already gone. Once the person passes he is ok, but might continue to look back at him or her. We have had a trainer and things were going well. He is 18 months old so I'm wondering if it is another developmental milestone thing. I don't like it mostly because it just isn't nice and I am out with him at 5:30am and people are trying to sleep. He has been such a great people dog and I don't want to lose that. |
