I have a 5yr (M) German Shepard that has been stuck in a separate room and yard from the rest the household and the other dogs due to a dog fight within the first year of living with them and while j was away serving.
I recently got out of the Army and have begun working with his obedience training, and he's come a long way, but I'd like to start working him back into being around the other three dogs in the house.
Any tips or tricks would be appreciated for how to reintroduce him to a 2month (F) and 5yr (M) blue heeler, and a 12yr (F) red heeler/ Shepard mix. All dogs are still "intact" / unfixed and we don't plan on changing that.
On top of the seclusion, due to this dog fight he has been highly reactive to other dogs and people on walks (always on leash but I need to get a muzzle). I've been driving him to an old dirt road 10-15mins from my house for exercise once or twice a week when I'm off work, but I'd like to be able to just walk him around the block and sit on the porch with him without having to worry about him barking at the neighbors.
