I actually dont do anything (pretty natural), sometimes i dont even spot an off leash dog approaching until my dog started barking. I always walk towards the other dog without any change in body language or pulling.

I think i have my dog dominated and he knows i am the alpha, he listens to command very well and is very obedient. I am still looking for someone or trainer who can help me with this issue
