How to Stop Dog Aggression - How to Stop a Dog from Biting

Stop Dog Aggression - Stop a Dog from Biting.  You give your dog so much loving attention and yet your dog has fear aggression.  He lunges at anything that moves while you're out walking with him.  How can this be?  Why do you have to learn how to stop dog aggression and how to stop a dog from biting?

Well, you may be surprised to learn that even when a dog is treated gently--but incorrectly--he can have fear aggression and dog biting problems so that you may have to learn how to stop dog aggression.

For example, when you greet your dog, your posture has a profound influence on your dog's behavior.  Here's how a person greets a dog to cause or reinforce fear aggression:  look him straight in the eye with your shoulders squared to him, lean over him, reach down from above, and pet him on the back of his neck.

One of my clients was doing that with her Jack Russell who shook so much that people thought she must be beating him!  Here's how she changed her greeting:  She squatted down, didn't stare at his eyes right awy, reached from the floor up to him and petted him on his chest and throat, not the back of his neck.  Her dog's submissive fear behaviors disappeared!

There are several motives for aggression in dogs.  When you are learning how to stop dog aggression and how to stop a dog from biting, you have to be careful to avoid simply switching motives.  For example, if you treat a dog's dominance aggression very harshly, he may then develop fear aggression problems!

Learn more about my methods on how to stop dog aggression and learn to stop a dog from biting without harsh methods like jerking and without gimmicks like squirting and clicking.

Here are a couple of my quotes that will tell you more about my philosophy of eliminating dog behavior problems like dog aggression and biting dogs:

"In dog training, 'jerk' is a noun and not a verb."

"Obedience training is great--but it will NOT solve behavior problems.  If you obedience-train a dog that bites, you then have a dog that Sits, Stays, Heels--and bites."

Dr. Dennis Fetko, "Dr. Dog"

If your dog is also pulling on his leash, here's a quick and very effective way to stop your dog's leash-pulling.

I have a new pup from the RSPCA; He is so loving and sweet but as soon as you say no or go to push him away from digging or eating something disgusting he makes that scary growl noise and he bites! but then goes back to being my sweet lil shaddow ,has recently been fixed, maybe he was hurt before the RSPCA picked him up?
