Ed Frawley Administrator Reg: 07-11-2001 Posts: 2112 Loc: Offline	I don't undferstand why a police K9 handler would allow his dog to be near other dogs. The best service dogs completly ignore other dogs. They need to be like this if they are to track suspect in an urban enviornment where they have to go through yards or by yards with dogs barkng at the fence. If a dog cannot do this its value as a service dog just went down about 50% Frawley@leerburg.com http://www.leerburg.com

You've got a collection of high drive, well trained dogs. That there would be some posturing is not all that uncommon. As Mr Frawley stated, once the work begins that all goes away and it's back to business. DFrost Any behavior that is reinforced is more likely to occur again.
