Hi,
We have a 7 month old male bullmastive, Roy. Around my husband and I Roy is a beautiful dog, although still in his puppy stages, but once he sees other people a different side comes out in him. At first he was barking and backing away, now he barks, gets down low and moved towards people. Sometimes it's a little scary as we don't know what he would do if he gets too close. We have tried being firm with him once someone else is present although he doesn't obey. When it is just us around Roy obey's and does everything he is told to too, he just doesn't like other people.
If we take him for a walk he goes wild, contonuousley barking. He is already 45 - 50kg so as you can imagine very hard for me to control when walking, if he sees anything he tried to run after it. Can anyone give us some advice as to how we can control his aggression towards others??
Amanda.
