To help your dog who is reactive to other dogs on leash, you can try desensitization and counterconditioning techniques. This involves gradually exposing your dog to other dogs at a distance where they are calm and rewarding them for calm behavior. You can also work with a professional dog trainer to develop a training plan tailored to your dog's specific needs.
To protect your dog from other dogs, always keep them on a leash when outside, avoid crowded areas, and be aware of your surroundings. Train your dog to obey commands and socialize them properly. Consider using a muzzle or a deterrent spray if necessary. Regular vet check-ups and vaccinations can also help prevent potential conflicts with other dogs.
Dogs may refuse to let you put the leash on due to fear, discomfort, or a desire to maintain control. It is important to address any underlying issues and work on positive reinforcement training to help your dog feel more comfortable with the leash.
If they r not fighting through the fence try to get someone to help u hold 1 dog on a leash & u hold other leash let them sniff and play if needed separate and walk by each other until they r familiar with each other
To help your dog make friends with other dogs, start by introducing them slowly in a neutral environment. Allow them to sniff each other while on a leash and observe their body language for signs of tension or aggression. Provide positive reinforcement such as treats and praise when they interact calmly and positively with other dogs. Gradually increase their interactions under supervision to build their confidence and social skills.
Yes, dogs can kill bunnies. To prevent this, owners should keep their dogs on a leash or in a secure area when around bunnies. Training and supervision can also help prevent dogs from chasing or harming bunnies.
To prevent your dog from biting other dogs' legs, you can start by providing proper socialization and training for your dog. This includes teaching them appropriate behavior around other dogs and using positive reinforcement techniques to discourage biting. Additionally, keeping your dog on a leash in public places and supervising their interactions with other dogs can help prevent any unwanted behavior. If the biting behavior persists, seeking guidance from a professional dog trainer or behaviorist may be beneficial.
Yes you can. Most public parks and places simply don't allow it, but if your dog is not aggressive and very friendly you could teach it to walk without a leash. I don't recommend walking down streets without a leash as it could be hit by a car. First when teaching your dog leash train it first. Teach it heel, and all the other leash behavior, then when you walk with your dog without a leash say heel and give it a treat if she walks beside you for awhile. Add more and more length to your walk before you give her a treat then include obstacles, and other people and animals. If she succeeds in her training it should be a piece of cake walking her in a public place without a leash.
Yes, they can. The key is to introduce them slowly. Put both dogs on a leash and make sure you have complete control before they see each other. As soon as they see each other they will become very excited, and they will want to pull you to get to the other dog, in most cases. Let the dogs smell each other while keeping the leash taut and staying in control. If there are no signs of the dogs fighting you can let them start being more active with one another, but you still need to keep a hold of their leashes. If the dogs stick their butts in the air, this is a sign of wanting to play, not fight. Playing can sounds vicious, so you are forewarned. For the first time the dogs play, keep the leashes attached to their collars just in case of an emergency. This allows you to be able to grab a hold of your dog easily to break up a fight. Also, spraying water out of a hose onto a dog fight can help to stop it.

Well... dogs kinda help every other dog so there's not a specific dog that helps dogs.
You may need to keep them separated. Sometimes two dogs will not like each other and there may not be a lot you can do about it. You could try to have them together on leash so if they start to fight you can correct them right away. Sometimes having them in a neutral setting can help. If they are at home they are more apt to be territorial.
yes because then you help them raise money to help lots of other dogs and help them get new homes.
