[nagdu] walking in to people

[Raven Tolliver]

Correcting your dog will do nothing if she does not know that she's
running you into people.
I would suggest you set up similar situations with friends or family,
and try to work her around them. Instruct the people helping you not
to move. I think the problem is that your dog expects people to move
out of the way, which is obviously not always going to happen. So do
these exercises, and when your dog does not work around them, stop and
tap the person saying: "No," "watch it," or "careful," then rework it.
Getting this right could take anywhere from a few times in one session
to a few days. Practice this inside, outside, in a room, hallway, and
wherever you can set it up.
This is what will ultimately fix the situation.
