Dog Meat? Training for Aggressive Dogs

Food aggression is a problem that needs to be addressed. Some dog owners feel threatened during feeding times and seem to be the ones being dominated by their dog. Reacting to your dog’s aggression submissively is counterproductive when training for aggressive dogs.

Don’t feel pushed to prepare your dog’s meal quickly, especially when he’s using aggression. Your dog needs to learn to rely on you for food. Make him wait if he is acting aggressively.

Dog training for aggressive behavior requires patience and persistence. You can’t force your dog to learn obedience, it’s a gradual learning curve. It takes time for your dog to adapt to certain new methods and rules. Setting a feeding time rather than leaving food in the bowl will make your dog come to rely on you for food.

Don’t tolerate bad behavior, be firm and say ‘No’ when your dog is misbehaving. It’s knowing how to treat aggressive dog behavior as and when it arises that will help your dog learn new behaviors.

Training for aggressive dogs shouldn’t be taken lightly. Your dog learns bad habits from experience, so it’s important to be persistent when obedience training.
