Gotcha
by: Adam G. Katz

Okay-- thanks. I understand now.

Here's what I advise:

1. Get a muzzle.

2. Teach the dog obedience exercises, so that he learns he must hold a sit-stay and down-stay, regardless of distractions.

3. Make him hold these commands (gradually) around more stimulating environments. If he shows aggression, correct him back into the sit-position. All while you're working with him or in public, he should be wearing the muzzle until you get him so that he's not longer showing the aggression.

4. Work boundary training exercises, which will quickly teach him what "No" means.

5 Use the "No" command if he shows any aggression.

Right now, he either doesn't understand what "No!" means; Or he doesn't trust that you'll keep him safe.

question
by: Anonymous

I was injured at the time.so was sitting on a chair. Not ideal ,I know.The Vet is a friend who I suppose was trying to help. The situation was not ideal by any stretch. The question I am asking is what should I be doing to help this dog become better with other people? Any ideas on what might be the driving factor?
