  • Instead, the best way to train away aggressive behavior is to reward good behavior. Sometimes your dog may need a little reminder that you are in charge, but ultimately he will respond best to reconditioning through reward-based training.

  • Aggressive dog or not, use positive reinforcement and positive reinforcement only. Use clear, strong commands that your dog is familiar with. Be calm and reassuring. Give the dog praise and positive reinforcement when your pup behaves properly. For example: let's say your dog is aggressive towards another animal in your home.
