Hi, i have an unusual problem with my Patterdale/Lakeland terrier Molly.
We have had Molly from a puppy for three years, she lives with a Labrador and cat, and is perfectly well behaved in the house. However , Molly has a habit of " screaming " at other dogs in the street. Normally smaller dogs and any dogs that bark at her. We have tried, distraction with treats, toys and on the advice of a dog trainer, squirting her with water, but nothing has worked. She is excercised three times a day and is fed with Burns.

Can anyone offer any advice ?

My cocker also does this!its very embarrasing its such a weird noisei dont think he was socialized enough as a pup.

Thanks for reply, we socialised Molly alot from the age of 12 weeks , as we have a communal dog park nearby.Yes the noise is awful and people look in horror as if we are hurting her.

Does she get to actually greet the dogs, or get a chance to interact with them?
