    Hi All

    Have couple of questions.

    1)I have a one year old german shepherd and he just does not like other dogs I got him when he was about four months old he was kept with about five other dogs at the time with no problems.

    Now its getting bad its a pain bringing him for walks in case we meet other dogs.

    Should have mentioned he doesnt seem to fight but barks like mad at them.

    So just wondering how could i get him used to other dogs preferably without obediance classes (money is tight)


    2)What would be a good food for him bearing in mind he is a big dog with a big appetite and money is an issue,Also when would you move him onto adult food.

    Thanks in advance.

    My dog is like that but i stared bringing her for walks with another dog and she barked at first but now ok and best thing to do is when they see another dog keep him on a tight lease and praise for not barking... takes time

    my samoyed is year and 3 months and wont eat anything else bar tesco dog food believe it or not.. and its giving her a shiny coat and everything seems ok.. and its cheap too
