Awww they want to meet, look at their wagging tails ⚠️A wagging tail is never a good indicator of your dogs emotional state. It can simply mean their emotional state has changed, apart from happiness and joy, that can also include changing into a fearful, anxious, angry, confused state. Tail wags are not a good indicator when deciding your dogs (or another dogs) emotions.I know this is controversial for some to hear but very few dogs are truly dog social....many are highly selective.They may only like their own breed.They may only like female dogs....small brown dogs...or curly coated dogs.They may have their own unique preference.They have (and are ALLOWED) their own social preference....just as we have our own social preferences.Or they may just dislike any other dog outside their/your family and friends.Encouraging dogs to meet a dog walking down the street (even with the best of intentions) can cause some serious issues. If your dog pulls you down the road at the mere glimpse of another dog, your dog is likely in a highly aroused emotional state. Allowing them to meet others in that state is habit forming and rewarding....so they WILL repeat it.Other dogs can respond badly to over aroused dogs.Why not just let two dogs meet ?There can be lifelong consequences to "just letting them meet"Reactivity and/or aggression.Anxiety and stressInjury.A lessening of the strong bond they may have with you as they can no longer trust your judgement.Why not take a bit of time and lessen the chance of these serious (and sometimes life altering) issues occur in the first place.So.... meeting any strange or unknown dogs on a walk, JUST because there is another dog there is something I highly discourage.However....There are some circumstances where you may have to introduce dogs. So these are a few tips which have been written about before (separately) in graphics but I have squeezed them together for a clearer reference.One of the biggest mistakes people make is only concentrating on their own dogs emotional state and not watching the rising stress in the other dog involved....These cause those "Out of the blue" reactions....They weren't out of the blue, they were just missed.🔵Micro meetings are essential.🔵Parallel walks are a must.🔵Avoid face to face.🔵Keep your voices light and happy.🔵DON'T make a dog sit or lie down.🔵Tension creates more tension so keep those leads loose.🔵NEUTRAL territory....not your yard, your house or even your immediate area around your house....go somewhere else.Biggest tip though (as mentioned) watch the body language of both dogs.....IGNORE the tail wags and watch the whole body and all the little tell tale signs given.If it doesn't feel right...it likely isn't.Trust your own intuition.ALWAYS advocate for your own dog no matter how "friendly" you are told the other dog is.Please respect that these graphics take time and effort to make.
