Thread: Possession issues

I think you will be able to stop him getting possessive of the truck with his other pack mates, but if another strange dog comes up to the truck he is doing his job by warning it off. Very unlikely you will be able to stop that. It's innate in dogs to protect their territory but I would be worried about him jumping off the ute and having a go at another dog that walks past.
The best way to know what he will do, is to set him up so he doesn't know you are watching and getting someone to walk past with a dog he doesn't know. There's a few other tricks but I wont bleat on too much
