He is usually a very laid back docile couch potato. However, whenever the children, 1 ˝ & 4, come over he is so excited with them. He is never aggressive but constantly tries to “herd” them. He’ll bump them or walk up and lick them in the face or on the arm or leg — constantly “sliming” or knocking them over. We don’t know which command/technique to use with him and hate to be constantly yelling “leave it” whenever he goes near them. He has been to obedience training and knows the basics when we enforce them. So far the only thing that really works is to put him on his leash and keep him next to me or my husband. He’s not like this with other people or children or animals but he spends a lot more with the grandkids than others. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.
