Dogs can make brilliant pets. They are faithful, loving and great company and they also make a brilliant addition to any family, however if you have a badly behaved dog, then this can make life difficult on not just you and your family, but on other people too. Many dogs suffer from some type of behavioural problem which are usually quite easy to fit, but some dogs tend to have problems with other dogs and this is called dog on dog aggression and can be very upsetting and dangerous for everyone involved. When you take a dog into your home, you need to be prepared for the risk that you take because all dogs can turn on their owners or other animals in the house. This is rare but it can happen and if your pet is showing signs of dog on dog aggression then you need to stop it now!
If you are not sure if your dog is suffering from this type of aggression, then you need to keep a watchful eye open and look out for the signs. One sign which you should look out for is excess barking when you take your dog for a walk or leave him in the garden. Does he react a lot to other dogs? Does he bark, yelp and pull on his leash? If you let your dog off of his leash, does he play well with other dogs or does he chase them and get over aggressive? Growling, biting, barking and chasing other dogs are all sure signs that your dog is suffering from dog on dog aggression and it is time that you took action to stop it.
One way to help with the way that your dog acts around other animals is by making sure that your pet is spayed, especially if it is a male. This usually helps to calm down boisterous dogs and can really help with behavioural problems. Dog on dog aggression is usually more prominent in specific breeds such as Jack Russell dogs, bull dogs and Alsatians. You can get specific guides on how to train your dog to stop his aggression against other dogs which are designed for different breeds which is really helpful when it comes to training. These guides can be found on dozens of websites and come in downloadable eBook formats so that you can begin training straight away.
