How in the world do I train him to be wary of strangers, without teaching him to hate people? he is still a baby just yet, and has just recently started to be alert when he hears noises outside..so I'm hoping it's coming. Hes just too damn friendly and sweet. good for nothing mongrol.
Be supicious when the situation warrants, and encourage him to do the same. "What's that? Go see. Watch him." Manipulate your tone and body language to convey that this is something to be concerned about. Dogs read us well.
When the situation does NOT warrant such concern, respond in kind.
It really is almost that easy.
