Try putting him on a short leash in a sit/stay position, or down/stay position when you start to see someone approaching you. Stand in front of him kind of between him and the passing individual. if and when he starts to get up, give a correction and put him back into the sit/stay position. You want to get him in the sit/stay position before he gets all excited so that you can handle him. It might even help that when you have him in the down/stay position, to stand on the leash so he can't get up. when he stays in that position until the person passes, you then praise him. you can also give a treat if he is food oriented. you want to try and keep his attention to. if he knows the "look at me" command, you can repeat this several times to get his attention and then using a treat as a help, I did this with my dog and he got on to it in about a week. if you practice this on your walks everyday, he should pick it up rather quickly and eventually go into the down/stay position when he sees someone approaching.
 
I guess he thinks that's his job. My dog barks and chases people along our fence, I think he thinks that's his job. At least you wont have to worry about being attacked by some creeper, they will be afraid of the dog.
 
train him with those treats
if he you yell at him to stop and if he does give him that treat. also if he is outside u could use a shoke collar... personaly i dont like those but whatever is nessisary.
u could also try a training class!
 
He's a Husky mix and he chases everything. If I'm walking him and someone goes by jogging, riding a bike or a skateboard, etc., he flips and starts barking and lunging. It's not aggressive at all, and he's very friendly, but it scares people. If someone is just walking by, he wags his tail and goes over to say hi, but anyone who's going faster than that he chases. I try to distract him with treats and toys, but he completely ignores me. What should I do?

That's natural. That's how doggies live. They are friendly like wolves. All animals are friendly. They are more scared of you than you are from them. Just let him be.
