Also, give your long experience as a trainer, were there any signs that the aggressor "might" be a problem? I have two dogs -- a Border Collie and a scruffy terrier mix of about the same size -- and over the last two yearsI have taken them to the local dog parks, we have managed to stay out of trouble by simply walking --- instead of milling around with the other dogs. Also, I have found Cesar Millans' preaching about pack leadership and "calm assertiveness" to be very helpful in raising my own dogs and surviving the dog park. Do you have any opinions on his techniques? Re: the bite incident

As you reflect on this incident, in hindsight, was there anything you could have done to ward off this aggressive dog that caused the problem? Also, give your long experience as a trainer, were there any signs that the aggressor “might” be a problem?

I have two dogs — a Border Collie and a scruffy terrier mix of about the same size — and over the last two yearsI have taken them to the local dog parks, we have managed to stay out of trouble by simply walking — instead of milling around with the other dogs.

Also, I have found Cesar Millans’ preaching about pack leadership and “calm assertiveness” to be very helpful in raising my own dogs and surviving the dog park.

Do you have any opinions on his techniques?
