So When I take Armani for walks he is fairly good as we pass people and dogs but as soon as a bikes passes he freaks out barking up a storm.
I will tell you what I have been doing but please dont yell at me I know it is probably all wrong.
If I see the bike coming I stop... I get between him and the bike on the sidewalk so that he is on my opposite side that the bike would be coming then I put him in a sit stay and tell him Good Boy Good Boy until the barking starts at which time I say NO until he stops then Good Boy Again... once the "incident" is over we continue on our way.
This is not helping at all.
So please tell me what to do different and what I am doing wrong.
Or tell me my dog is CRAZY for barking at bikes only... thats fine too.
