Doesn't tolerate rude dogs
Well we've been going to flyball for quite a while now and kinda keep ourselves to ourselves as Ledger isn't the most interested in socializing 'hi' is about his limit
Well there is a large hairy lurcher type called Indy and he is absolutely obsessed with one of the other smaller dogs Archie so much so that every chance he gets he pelts over to Archie and tries to mount him. Well after one of our runs today Ledger brought back the ball was playing reward tuggy and just as I was about to put him back on lead Indy span back out of the run and tried his Archie tactics on Ledger. Now Ledger isn't DA but he has very firm I'm not happy with this situation reactions and span back at Indy pushing him into the wall, as soon as I called Ledger he came back to me and the trainer immediately called at me not to tell him off
Both the trainer and Indys owner said that it was what Indy needed that because of his size and over enthusiasm most dogs dont tell him off but he sulked for the rest of the session seems Ledger has caught Indys ear just a scratch but it doesn't stop me feeling a bit guilty

Sounds like Ledger was doing the right thing, don't let it worry you.

Don't feel bad he needs someone to put him in place at some point

Re: Doesn't tolerate rude dogs
Don't feel bad about it. Ledger actually did Indy and his owner a favour
in a funny sort of way, because a dog will learn good manners from
another dog much quicker and easier than we can teach them.
This was what the trainer was trying to tell you.
