should stop when he gets some age about him at the end of the day he's still a pup at heart. my bitch did it all the time, how she don't bother.

its only a pup.when he sees other dogs he jus wana play is all.when i was passing other dogs[ and people ] i would put the pup on a lead and giv it a little tug of the lead and tell him ta heel.seems ta work after awhile.

Does he rush over full steam ahead? ... it's a right pain in the ass when they do that.

 

I'd suggest having him on lead and asking people if it's all right to bring him over. Then go over calmly, that'll teach him to be more polite about meeting other dogs.

 

As for recalling him before he darts off like his ass is on fire, I'd use a long line. Recall him before he sets off and if he doesn't listen you've still got control - you can correct him, then approach the oncoming dog appropriately. Doing that in an area where you know there are going to be other dogs passing should give you lots of practice at it. He'll get the message. I hasten to add, be kind about this with him. If you get cross at him - and it's hard not to - he can develop issues around the approach of other dogs. Which, when you live in a built up area, can be really frustrating.

 

The age he's at now can be trying but persevere and be consistent. This too shall pass

There are leads with shock absorbing cords in them and strong hendles by ezydog. It helps stop the jarring effect on your dogs neck and your shoulder.
