How can I get my dog to stop growling at approaching strangers?
By: Munch | 21-07-2008
I have a 10 month old German Shepherd.  He is very friendly at dog parks, home, and when he gets introduced to new people but when he is on a walk and a single person approaches he growls and wants to approach them.  He is a very large puppy and I have been trying to get him to sit and stay while rubbing his chest to no avail.  He is being protective and wants to check everyone out but he'll scare people if he continues to growl and I can't let him sniff every stranger.  How can I train him to be more comfortable with approaching strangers?

How to use a muzzle to curb barking dog

Can anyone reccomend a method for using a muzzle to curb excessive barking in a poddle mix.    He barks at other dogs, whenever excitied (like taking a ride in the car) new people, and the TV...  Not constantly, but LOUDLY, and although he doesn't seem to have an aggressive bone in his body, but he can scare people.   I like to take him with me everywhere, but his barking has put a real damper on that.

I want a deaf dog, but.....
By: Nes | 02-07-2008
So I went to the animal shelter along with my girlfriend today and this 10 month old mixed Pitbull really caught our attention. The dog is gorgeous and very friendly. We just fell in love with her the minute we saw her, but as we were reading her description we read that she is deaf. I really don't care about that but i am worried that if we bring her to our home and if she gets out of the house one day, she may get hurt by a car or something/someone else, since she can't hear anything approaching her. My girlfriend and I really want her, but we are just worried about her safety...we also got a chance to walk her and I obviously couldn't call her over. The only way she comes to us is when she looks at us and we sign her to walk over to us.  Should I be worried about her impairment and how can I train her??
