When dogs bark at other dogs / people / cars / cyclists / joggers / children / *enter any other random thing here* it is often because of their emotional state – They may be fearful or anxious or possibly over aroused & excited. There’s almost ALWAYS a reason for any behaviour. There will be something causing it. It will be an emotional response to something ….

When Hunter first arrived he was a growly, barky, lunging soul who was very unsure of many situations. He trusted nothing & no one. No one could walk up to him for a fuss without him barking at them, confidently approaching them whilst doing so (not cowering away) he was ready to take on the world and would defend himself with all of his might.

When I adopted Kurt he had quite a nasty bite history. In fact, he put his last owner in hospital after a full blown attack …. I use the word "attack" … Not a bite / release … A full on attack, up & down & all over her body.
