@pauls1015 If the dog is under control (staying close to owner and listening) and then no harm no foul. If the person is struggling to keep their dog behaving then you can politely inform them that there is a leash law. Look into the state laws as well if in the USA as some states have leash...

@hazrus Yeah, never too late to work on training!

@hazrus Have you spent time desensitizing him to the car? When it's not in motion spending some time in the car, first when it's off, then with it on. Start small- up to 5 minutes, then increase time. If he's comfortable with the car off and on without moving it may be balance concerns he has...

There are good dogs out there, if you're looking to rehome this guy and find a good fit for you I'd reccomend either finding a reputable breeder or a rescue that does foster homes. Foster homes allow the dog...

@little_sparrow When you started did you spend some time in the hammock without nail trimming? To desensitize to it? If you want to keep using the hammock, spend some time with her in it everyday (5 seconds - 5 minutes) most days don't even have the clippers or dremel out, you want her...
