I'm pretty sure his behavior is fear-based. I am very familiar with Cesar Milan, and as I've said before, I, by my self, maybe able to handle the dog. I don't have too much confidence in my ability to maintain calm energy with the owner(s) around... People kinda change my energy-know what I mean? Besides, what you're talking about is a longer term project that I am not up for. I suppose I could attempt standing in place out in the road and wait for the dog to retreat, but then the owners might report mefor my strange behavior. Even if I were successful with this technique, it doesn't guaruntee my sons safety, does it?
