Just a quick question regarding my 7 and a half month old Rott.
He is extremely friendly with strangers, to a point where he will just run up to people and wag his whole body for some attention. Although this annoys me a bit I know that he needs fully socialising and up until now I have let him do it. Should I now discourage it given his gae (he is starting to mature, lifting his leg?? He is in a habit of running up to people pushing pushchairs ( I have a young son)and other children and some people are not keen to have an 80lb Rottie pup that they dont know bounding up to them...
Other than this little difficulty his odedience is great and I know I could correct him quickly, would I be doing right though at this point?? Should I now be trainging him that he has to look to me for permission to approach people...
Teach the dog to sit by your side and not go up to people until you command him to do so. I use "Make Friends" for this. Also teach the pup that he has to sit in front of the person to get petted.
