And then we went to the pub for 1/2 a cider afterwards. There was a spaniel underneath a table with his owners. FD and spaniel sniff each other initially with no issue and I walk into the pub with FD, order my food and get my 1/2 cider and head off to sit outside. We see spaniel again only this time when FD sniffed him he started to growl at spaniel - I go to pull him away and he starts barking and lunges at spaniel.
This behaviour is unacceptable but I am not entirely sure how I can address it. I do my best to avoid other dogs by walking early or late in the day but it's not always possible and although he's good most of the time I need to know I can control his behaviour when we're out in public. And the growling at small children? How can I work on FD's tolerance towards children?
