Our third, and final dog (for now), in our Bad Dog! series is Mugsy who lives with the Santoro family in Cary. This 5-year-old, 95-pound Boxer loves going for walks and meeting new "friends" along the way. Problem is, he nearly pulls his walker's arm out of the socket to meet them! Marj Santoro had to have major surgery to repair torn ligaments in her shoulder. Her two athletic teenage boys don't even like to walk Mugsy.
Jenny Marconyak from Bark Busters joins us to try to get Mugsy's leash-pulling under control. The family learns several lessons to change their own behavior in order to help Mugsy improve his. Watch tonight on WRAL's 5:30 News to see the progress! If you can't catch us on TV, be sure to check out WRAL.com in the Bad Dog section for the story.
By the way, for those of you interested, the folks at the Tar Heel Boxer Meetup Group wanted me to pass along a link to their web site if you'd like to learn more about Boxers or just make new friends.
And how about this... A bad dog inspired two young girls from the Triangle to write their own song! As always, feel free to ask questions about training issues or just share your comments.
Enjoy!
