I can’t believe I live in a three dog household where Arlo is the least problematic and the most angelic of the bunch
#so proud of how far he’s come#he’s not been reactive in years#he is still fear aggressive with 90% of dogs and 100% of men but I don’t see either of those as flaws#his man hatred has saved my life on more than 3 occasions#his favorite kind of dog: tiny boys (if neutered)#we have a tiny neighbor named Digger and he gets very excited to see him when they’re in the yards at the same time#and it’s so healing to see him play bowing at a dog after all he’s been through#but I can’t let him play bc Digger’s mom is kind of unsettling and I think her vibe would set Arlo up for failure#he wouldn’t hurt digger but he might get snarly if diggers mom makes him nervous#so they just say hi through the fence#he does NOT like juni#he is indifferent to banjo but she doesn’t really like him so he’ll lunge and growl if she comes near (there are no instances where#they interact at all dw)#me n Arlo live in the basement with our own set of doors#Juni n banjo live upstairs#my cats get free rein of the whole house EXCEPT as of recently since Juni is turning out to not be very good with cats#so now they’re in the basement with us during the day when the upstairs dogs are home#free reign at night and while Tyrell and thom are working#the Juni with cats thing is actually sort of bizarre— she’s only iffy with them when I (their parent) is around#she gets VERY upset if i pet Ottilie in front of her#resource guarding maybe? but she doesn’t resource guard me from banjo like she does w Tyrell#Juni is complex#banjo is an enigma and hard to read#I love them all even if they’re all a lil nutty#banjo and Juni are reactive#Juni only while on leash#she’s making progress#I haven’t walked banjo in a while so I’m not sure where her progress there lies#but she’s still reactive in the yard#anyway I’m proud of Arlo
