• Has anyone's dog ever chased cars?

    Dexter has recently started doing this I think he's suicidal.

    The latest solution is to stop. hold a treat near his face until the cars gone by and I say "leave" it works most of the time, except for really big trucks.

    Is there anything else I should be doing?

  • Our sprollie used to chase his tail particularly when white vans went past. We got him back from the edge of the road if we could and stood between him and the "threat" and only interacted after he stopped. He was never interested in food or treats so his only reward was a "good lad" and a heavy patting (euph). It worked after a couple of weeks of normal walking. You could possibly accelerate it by positioning near a busier road with a suitable escape route so you can both get a breather.
