Little devil?

Hi

We have tree wonderful dogs. The old one, Herman, the hungry one, Lennon and the scared one Baldo or as we call him in Portugal, Ronaldo.

In Portugal there are a lot of dogs in chains outside the houses, they never get any exercise or challenge. Of course most of these dogs are really frustrated and barks a lot when anyone pass. We have always tried to take care of our dogs in the best way so we have a real challenge with Ronaldo because he is so scared of meeting other dogs even if they are in chains he totally freaks out. He barks and pulls his lead, all because he is afraid and almost panics.

Ronaldo is the most lovely dog when he is relaxed. The most important thing is to get him relaxed and trust in us a leaders. We have tried different types of training with Ronaldo to give him more self confidence and feel more relaxed when we are walking outside our farm. First we were participating in a course together with other dogs out and walking. This didn´t work as we thought so we went into a new course that Ronaldo really liked, agility. But the problem when meeting other dogs did remain so now we are in a new course together with other dogs with simular problem and this course is called little devils class. We have a wonderful teacher in Sharon Wilson, she is really fantastic and we really hope that this will help Ronaldo to be more relaxed and enjoy his walks more. It´s so terrible to see his eyes when he get in the panic mood. All this courses is just to see what we can do to help him.

Now I am training a lot home with Ronaldo, every morning we walk a long calm walk without any stress. We also have started to train in our garden with contact practice so he will feel more confidence in us as a leaders

Look at this lovely dog, he just would like to have fun and play. I really hope that this course will help Ronaldo to get more self confidence and trust us as leaders.

Beautiful Baldo/Ronaldo

Is it dangerous?

I just want to have fun
