Dog reactivity
by Judy Kiehm
(Chicago)
Maisy is a rescue, i adopted her when she was 5 and i have had her for 7 years. she was found in rural Texas and brought to chicago by Alive rescue. she walks at my pace and always has but she has gone after other dogs when i am walking her. she is the most loving dog i have ever had . i am now 81 years old in good health but we had an incident this past week that sent me to the er with a head injury. we were turning a corner by a restaurant with out door seating and she locked eyes with a dog under a table with dining owners . in pulling her away i lost balance hitting my head on the pavement. a friend who boards dogs for years suggested i try a prong collar and she has offered to help me with it. Maisy tolerates dogs she knows and i always walk way around strange dogs but this accident is an eyeopener as to what can happen . any suggestions would be appreciate. we have no interaction with other dogs... just those we pass in walking . thank you, JudyKiehm

Donato has a half Pyrenees half Maremma mom and a maremma dad and through the quirkiness of genetics looks mostly Pyrenees … at least to my newbie eyes.
