It’s probably every dog owner’s dream to have a dog that’s friendly and loyal, but it can be a problem, especially when you’re out on walks. When a dog is nice to everyone, they put themselves at risk of injury because not every other dog they come across on walks will feel the same way. This is why you do need to be cautious when you have an over-friendly dog and you should always put him or her on a lead if you come across a dog that doesn’t like they are is going to be very friendly. Most of us can appreciate a dog who protects their home too and having a dog that barks can be a godsend, so try not too allow your dog to be too soft when you’re training him or her. Some tough love will go a long way.
