Well done for rescuing an unwanted dog. Whats his name?
You can desensitise him to other dogs by using a clicker.

Hi again, I didn't mention, I also read the books recommended, have Rugaas'
video, however I do not want you to get the impression I have given up, I
re-read that page again (I have it printed out somewhere) and I see some
finer points I may have missed that I think I can try again, like how to
circle, distract and treat when another dog comes into the picture, IF I can
catch it in time :)
