Accordingly, what can we do to counteract aggression directed towards some other dogs. Obedience training is a first and most evident step. When trained correctly right from the start, the dog will answer its owner's commands.

Once your puppy recognizes your authority and accepts that you are the boss, he will be more manageable. Socialization is phase 2. You should gradually introduce your puppy to other dogs so he becomes useful to being around them and less prone to react aggressively.

Dog training to reduce aggressive behavior should often be carried out with endurance and understanding. Never rush your pet dog and most important, HARDLY EVER punish him. Instead, use positive reinforcement and praise and reward him any time he behaves correctly. All dogs adore to please their owners and respond to praise and treats. Without exception, I have always found the simple philosophy of praise together with reward to be the most effective means to train your dog.

Always, always remain calm. All all too often I see owners which become embarrassed by their dog's aggressive behavior relating to the leash, or they are frightened that their dog might hurt another dog and often over react or with react. If you end up tense, your dog will come to feel it instantly is very likely to increase the aggressive habit.

Be especially cognizant of your body language, and do whatever needs doing to maintain your fascinating. Focus on working along with the dog, not on what others are considering your dog.

Be constantly alert to your surroundings. It is frequently far better to notice your dog approaching from a distance and start working with your dog, than it is to have to wait for that dog to become upon you and then try to CALM your dog.

Having said that, never reinforce the behavior. Often I see nervous owners stop and pat their dogs saying something like "it's okay" in some sort of sing-song voice. All this does is teach your pet dog that you approve in the behavior. After all, he's just behaving reactively, and you're patting him because of it!

Try giving pet something to do. Don't just fall back on a sit-stay, but work the dog in an a sequence. Keep him busy with another thing; keep his brain engaged.

Prevent problems by reading the warning signals ahead of time. For extra control, I always recommend using a halti-collar that fits in the dog's face and fastens above the neck. The leash attaches to a ring below the dog's throat. What does it gain? It allows a dog who might otherwise pull to the lead to self-correct without any jerking, yanking, or pinching. It is made from nylon, is quite resilient, and comes in one of six sizes and needs to be fitted to the pet.

Invented by the Dr. Roger Mugford it works over the principal that no animal loves to walk with its head took on the right or eventually left.
