Have you had that experience
when you brought home a new puppy and the older dogs in the house would not ‘welcome’
it? You know, where the ‘big daddy dog’ of the house would growl at the little
puppy if it tries to come near him? How about that experience where you meet dogs
whilst taking yours for a walk and then it suddenly becomes aggressive and
attempts to free itself from the leash to go attack? This can be very scary and
dangerous, really, because if you don’t take control and it breaks lose, you’re
going to have one hell of a fight that you may not be able to stop. So how do
you solve this problem? Now, to even make your dog obey your commands, you need
to become a pack leader, first and foremost. This online teaching resource: Stop Dog Fights would supply you the absolute
details of how to become a pack leader and what you should do in such a
situation for $1 three day trial. I suggest you click on the link and find out
for yourself. In the meantime, here’s a gist of what to do.
Know
What Your Dog Is Feeling In The Moment
So, how do you determine
what your dog’s feelings are in the moment? There’s a thin line between a dog
feeling excited and aggression. This can be difficult to determine because dogs
act similarly in both situations. The way to determine its feeling in the moment
is to observe the other dog’s behavior in response to your dog’s. If the other
dog acts scared or aggressive then it’s a clear signal that yours is in an
aggressive mood.
How
do you fix this?
Keep your distance as much
as possible from the other dog until your dog is calm. Better still, there are
effective methods you can learn to calm down an overly aggressive dog as a pack
leader. You’ll find all that here: The Online Dog Trainer. After calming it, walk your dog over to meet
the other dog without saying anything or interrupting their interaction. Let
them interact freely as much as possible but if you sense any form of
aggression coming up, pull it away. The point here is to show your dog that
you’re in control and you’re not going to tolerate any form of bad behavior.
However, if it behaves, you would reward it by allowing it to meet other dogs.
Never take your dog to meet another dog when it’s excited or in an aggressive
state. It would mean rewarding bad behavior and that would create serious
problems for you in the future.

this so if you want all the juicy details, try The Online Dog Trainer. Feel free to share your thoughts if you found the
