Does it seem like your dog is unpredictable about barking at people coming into your home??

Are you confused on whether your dog is being territorial or fearful??

If you are confused and unsure, so is your dog!

There are a lot of dogs who have a territorial/protective instinct due to their genetics but through their environment have been taught to love other people and dogs.

This internal conflict causes a lot of confusion in a dog’s mind, which is why your dog needs YOU to help them work through it.

When your dog is in that confused state about a person, you need to call your dog to focus on YOU, NOT the other person.

I know this seems counterintuitive because you want your dog to be able to be OK with the person... but in order to achieve that, you have to keep your dog’s mind controlled and prevent any negative thoughts about the person from accumulating and leading to reactive or aggressive behavior.

This also teaches your dog that when he thinks it’s his job to judge the person, he should look to you instead. This takes the stress off your dog of needing to be the “protector” of you.

Once you have redirected your dog’s focus to you and your dog has too much focus on you (meaning he isn’t zoning in on the new person), allow your dog to look at the person.

If he starts barking or goes back into judgement mode, call your dog back to you and try again. If your dog is able to look at the person and right back to you on his own, he is ready to say hello to the person.

From here, give your dog a “Go Say Hi” command to go and say a nice hello! For detailed instructions on how to conduct a proper introduction with a new person, see my previous videos.
