Need help with Aggression
- Don’t make excuses for the behavior. It is often useful to study the “ABCs”
- of aggression (Antecedent, Behavior, Consequence), but this does not mean
- that one can excuse or accept the behavior.
- Safety first! Close supervision of the dog at all times, especially around children.
- No physical punishment.
- Require the dog defer to you (usually with a simple “sit” command) for
- everything it wants – food, toys, going outside, etc.
- Ignore all demands for attention made by your dog. Dogs should be given
- lots of love and affection, but they should never be permitted to demand
- play, petting, toys or attention.
- Avoid situations which have triggered previous attacks.
- Do not tie the dog outside for extended periods of time.
- No rough play, chase, keep away or other inappropriate games.
