Option #3, intact or not you train, train, train your recall, how to get him to focus on you, and then maybe he can go off leash again. :) As...
@Max777 those sound like common problems and not what I would call signs of hyperactivity at all. I call those bad manners. A class in...
Ditto Beanwood, I would Vet and ask for blood work. Hypothyroidism can make a dog seem aggressive where he/she was not before. So can other...
I did this: EDITED to remove link to another forum - see Rule 1c Somebody is coming to come back and say this is using an aversive and of course...

Arrgghhh, Juno too? Good wishes for you two as well. Baked sweet potato is my mainstay, since rice didn't work at all for us. In case you need...

Such a pretty girl, is she a fox red?
Can you leash him up and go with him? No telling what you might find at the end, a big pile of fresh smelling garbage would do that to many dogs....
I wish the article distinguished between purebred and well bred. Nice, though, and I see the photo of the brindled puppy looks like as much...
You mean the puppy died at the breeders? That's not necessarily the breeder's fault in any way but what has she/he done to eliminate traces of...
