<p>No, food will work if I catch her before she is all worked up. I try to ignore her and pull her along. This morning I got so mad I yelled NO and continued on my way which works for the present situation but does not work going forward. I just have to keep my eyes on guard for the dog coming around the corner. I think the common thread seems to be FOOD...... </p>

If there are so many dogs that this type of distraction isn't possible, then honestly I would…
