[nagdu] ranting handling skills?

[Jodie and Xandir]

Laura, did he number two in the street before or after the lunging incident?
If before, it may have been a reaction to the stress of the encounter with
the other dog. Xandir relieves in harness in exciting or stressful
situations.

Kori has an issue with lounging at dogs. Tonight there was a loose
dog. I told Kori to leave it. The dog came up to us and Kori lounged
and growled at it. I have two two handed corrections for lounging
twice. Theonly thing that got Kori to stop was the other handler
taking their dog. Kori flipped around while I was holding on to the
harness handle and lounged at the dog. I gave him a hop up forward
correction and that didn't work either. Seriously.... sigh

He also went #2 in the middle of the street after I had just given him
a chance to go.

Sorry for ranting yet again.
