Re: the rituals of ‘greet’

Has he never been ‘put in his place’ so to speak? Am lucky that Loki is quite responsive to the reaction he gets from another dog… if he is ignores – told to go away or similar – he will… equally he will play rough with a couple of labs that he always plays rough with… i have noticed that the other dogs don’t react differently to others – they always try to play rough – whereas Loki seems to adapt…  I have no idea why he is differnt – I think I am lucky.

But my parent dog is very good at telling him what he can and can’t do… maybe max just hasn’t ever had that?  :-\

Am sure others will have more helpful advice.
