in this clip, you see one way to work through leash reactivity with an animal aggressive dog. Iris is my own dog and we have done this many times. the severity of her reactivity has decreased significantly from where we started. she emotionally comes down very quickly now, which is a huge win. when we first began this training process, she would hit threshold and stay there for quite a few minutes following the interaction. a few key take aways: 1. distance is your friend. find your dogs threshold and work right below it. over time you will close the gap. 2. maintain accountability. once you have a solid foundation of obedience and a good relationship, behaviors should be enforced. 3. don't panic. maintain your composure. the more anxious you act, the more anxious your dog will be. #leashreactivity #leashreactivedog #dogtraining #dogtrainer #bullybreed #americanpitbullterrier #americanstaffordshireterrier
