A "Yellow Dog" is one who may need space from other dogs or people and should wear a yellow ribbon to alert other walkers to this.
A "Yellow Dog" is not necessarily a dog who is "aggressive", there are MANY reasons a dog may need space!
Some of these are:
- - Maybe it has health issues
- - It may be a rescue dog being rehabilitated. The world can be a very scary place for these dogs.
- - It may have had a bad experience with another dog or is just not like the kind of friendly dogs which always want to say “Hi!”
- - A bitch may be in heat
- - The dog may be in training
- - It may be very old and arthritic
- - It may be very nervous or shy and other dogs cause it stress
