Hi guys,

I have posted here a few times about my troubled rescue dog Wilson who has severe problems with other dogs to the extent that he is going properly wild whenever he sees another dog (any dog, near or far!). I am black and blue from his thrashing about - he is a big lad and strong as heck when he gets going!

Anyway I am trying to divert his attention with food and having no success at all so far when other dogs are about - any other time he will do anything for grub! I have cut his food intake back to the bare minimum (he was underweight when I got him so has been getting lots of extras) and am walking him at least 7 miles a day - he is only about 18 months so has lots and lots of energy.

So my question is, what do your dogs find really really irresistable? I am looking for any ideas at all really, preferably really whiffy stuff that will distract and hopefully stop him building up to such an hysterical state!

Thanks in advance

OMG we have the same problem with our Labrador Bailey he barks ferosiously and my husband will not use doggy words preceeded by his name, the pair of them are driving me mad We have tried the clicker, bark collar titbits but he does not listen If he gets up to the dog he wants to play but by then the owners are not impressed Were taking him swimming in the morning and he hasn't been out for ages due to his behaviour Hope he behaves

I use Lidl tinned hot dog sausage for training, or I buy Tesco 99p for 20 sausages and bake on a low heat until rock hard.

Both VERY popular with my hounds.

Its not just my lab then! Everyone expects labs to be so well behaved too
Hope he enjoys his swim, I am thinking of taking Wilson to the sea over the weekend to see how he reacts to the water!
