I hope it's ok to post this in Training...if not maybe a moderator can move it. It's a horse training video but although the actual training is totally different with dogs - it seems to me that the principle is the same.
These are dressage horses (the kind of riding I do) and they are all "acting up" probably from freshness or fear of going past something or just testing the rider. The BEST way to handle this is to RIDE THEM FORWARD - i.e. calmly sit back, keep your legs on them, half-halt and keep pushing them forward even if they buck, rear, whatever. No need for harsh bits or whipping the horse until welts form, etc.
Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNMIz-RjJyw
