I bought this little velcro sign for my leash that says “Dog Reactive” and it’s made me feel way better when my dog has melt downs in public. She’s a little over two years old now, but it’s only in the last few months that we’ve made any headway with her issues. She used to not accept treats outside our house and was a nightmare to try and train even with anxiety meds that work.
Now she has was less meltdowns, but when they do happen, they’re still pretty embarrassing because I feel like the other dog owners are judging me for my incompetence. I bought the little sign as a way to discourage randos from trying to approach me with their dogs, and it’s worked pretty well! Everyone gives us a wide berth when I take her to the dog park (we walk around, not in so she can get used to seeing other dogs), and it helps me by letting people know that I am aware of the situation and working on it.
