our nine month old gentle bullmastiff dog Alan goes mad when we try and take him for a walk. As soon as we get into the street he starts jumping up and mouthing whoever walks him getting quite pushy and grabbing our arms in his mouth tail wagging and acting like a maniac for the first five minutes or so. The rest of the walk is ok then he starts again when we get back into our street its getting very embarrassing as it looks like a wrestling match hes nine stone so you can imagine its quite traumatic. He used to walk fine this problem has been happening for the last 6 weeks or so and as you can imagine noone wants to walk him anymore. He has always had a mouthing problem that we have failed to stop trying the sqealing turning away etc nothing seems to work. He isnt aggressive with his food or toys and is very obedient with sit stay fetch. He seems to be doing it in a playful way but because of his size its becoming quite a problem. Its almost as if he gets himself into a frenzy. He has been neautered.
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
