Aggressive German Shepherd

by Mel
(Sydney)

My dog is constantly barking at my neighbours and trying to jump over the fence. He tries to go through the fence.

When people come to my house he growls and barks like he wants to kill them. He has attacked a family member because he pushed him off him when he jumped up on him.

I'm scared he will really hurt someone one day...

We took him to puppy school and he was great.
He was attacked by a dog when he was just 7 months. He is now 11 months and i'm scared about what he will do.

He is pretty good to walk though.

Nothing In Life Is Free
by: Adam G. Katz

Employ the "Nothing In Life Is Free" approach, so that your dog starts to view you as the "pack leader." If your dog doesn't see you as the leader, then your corrections will be meaningless. So, if you're doing subtle things (inadvertently) to undermine your leadership role around the house-- it will be counter-productive.
