We can do all we can as the best dog parents in the world, but it can be tricky to navigate other people's dogs and it can feel unpredictable about what they can do.



However, this episode will bring you all of the tips, experience and observation skills you need to keep you and your dog happy when out and about, and how to identify those 'flashpoint' situations to avoid with other people's dogs.



We hope you enjoy and please leave a review if you loved it!
