Baxter like i have stated before is 10 month old rescue who is super friendly just like any other boxer when he sees people. My questions are as follow.
1. Any suggestions as to what i can do to stop him from automatically jumping on someone that wants to say hi to him. i don't expect him to just sit there with not reaction or emotion but i also would rather him not jump on people. After a couple of minutes, he does calm down and his attention goes to something else but stays at my side relatively calm.
2. Any suggestions on when i can start leaving him alone without having to crate him? How long should he be left alone at home at first? He does sleep on his bed and not in a crate at night.
I am happy to inform that he has finally learned to sit at corners before we cross the street. woohooooooo!!!!!
any help is greatly appreciated
Hope all is well.
Cheers
