We have been working really hard with Murphy since we adopted him in June and he is doing FANTASTIC. He has adjusted well and is even starting to protect the house. We take him for 2 walks a day and do obedience training at home and at the park (not dog park). We had a trainer come in to address the lunging issue and we were put on the NILF training. Murphy came to us obedience trained and he was spoiled at his previous home as well as here.
Now we can't seem to stop the lunging at people during our walk. He doesn't even seem to have the signs of Ears, Tail, head etc. He just does it 0-60 in 1 second. Sometimes he doesn't bother but most times he just lunges and barks. We have our trainer coming back in on Monday but want to see what people suggest here.
It's an aggressive lunge
We show no tension and are completely relaxed on the walks but it still happens
