    i am the owner of a weimaraner (14months) who is showing aggressive behaviour towards strangers who approach the house or approach her outside the house. i was wondering if someone could suggest a good dog trainer in the cork area or i'd appreciate any advice in this area.

    (apologies if i've posted this twice, new to this forum)

    It is showing dominant behaviour and is protecting you when you are out and "his house" when you are home. Has the dog been socialised ,i.e. Has it been exposed to all types of people,places etc?

    you should maybe try a daps collar, you can get them in the vets, its not electric or anything, it releases pheromones that the mother dog releases to her pups to calm them. Havnt used them but have been told by alot of people that they are fantastic and seen a change in their dogs. hope that helps:)
