Barking
I have tried everything with my now 6yr old Maltese/Min Pinch to try to control his barking, particularly when out on a walk. On walks he starts off barking and should he see someone or another dog it becomes almost uncontrollable. We have tried training, bark collars, natural calming treats and even resorted to trying prescription meds. Although things have helped at times, nothing seems to really resolve the problem. It makes walks not enjoyable for either of us.

Dominance: Dog training's dirty word
My 4 month old black lab has alot of energy. Sometimes, after a walk, during a walk or when just playing in the backyard he will stop, look at me then basically "atttack" me... He jumps up starts biting at me. I have tried the "ignoring" thing and the "rolling on the back and "muzzling" thing as well, he reacts better to the dominance roll. Any suggestions?

Dog training: Walking on-leash
I trained my 2 year old chihuahua/jack russel terrior mix to potty by taking him out on a leash 3 times a day. Now, I would like to untrain him to go in the backyard and take him once daily on a long walk. How do I pull this off. He insists on holding his stuff until I leash him and walk him. He will not let anyone else walk him either.

Dominance: Dog training's dirty word
In a group of dogs or any animals there is a leader and rank, most people shouldn't try physical training because they don't know how to read the dog and the correct timing, but when done correctly I think it can be better than reward training. But for most people reward training is the only way to go because, they can't physically train their dog properly which leads to problems, but reward training is much easier to understand and for most people can't be done improperly.
