Not sure if this post goes here or in "General Behavior". Mods please move if needed.
Here is the situation, we have 4 dogs. Pit mix f/s about 9 yrs and 50 lb, WGSD m/c 3 years about 75 lbs, GSD m/c 2 1/2 yrs about 100 lb, and most recent adoption - Min. Poodle, guessing to be 12-15 yrs, about 10-11 lbs who is blind and hard of hearing. Both the GSD will literally walk or run into the little dog. Sometimes she crosses thier path with out knowing it, I understand that. But the boys will also run into her while she's standing still, it seems like they don't even realize she's there. I'm trying to push them away from her and tell them "Watch Ellie" and point to her. The biggest boy, worst offender, seems to be learning it as a command, but can I teach him to do it without being told?
