@leaderofthepacklv: Common misconceptions regarding this type of behavior. “The dog is aggressive” I’d say there’s always the potential for aggression, yes. But how the dog is handled (by guests and owners) plays a strong role in how the dog responds. “His hackles are up, that means he’s aggressive” Raised hackles are in indication of arousal, not aggression. Although raised hackles sometimes due precede aggression. “The tail is up, he is confident” Maybe in the moment, but it’s typically a facade with these dogs, and in these situations. It’s really false display of confidence due to proximity of the owner and anticipated outcomes (people go away) Remember this… Dogs use behaviors that work for them. It’s up to us to communicate: 1. What actually works and what doesn’t 2. That certain behaviors are unnecessary 3. Certain behaviors are unacceptable 4. The path to safety, comfort and peace is following our clear direction. Do you have a dog like this? Let me know in the comments.

Our yellow lab has been like this since we got him at 8 weeks old. He isn’t codependent though, he doesn’t follow me around at all and doesn’t cuddle with us much or at all really. He likes butt scratches and sometimes belly rubs but otherwise not very affectionate.

My pit/pug he is a year old every time he hears a noise he starts barking it’s like he’s afraid he gets aggressive when me specifically get “hurt” like play fighting like when my my three year-old cousin came over he bit him on the side and he had to get antibiotics to help it heal

I go into homes for work. as much as I love dogs, I will ignore that dog until he comes back to sniff for round two.

I have a pit that I rescued when he was 1. He is anxious. He’s been to obedience training. The only thing I haven’t been able to correct is his reactivity to other dogs

Am I correct in assuming that these techniques can/should be done in puppyhood as well as a mature dog like this?

user8342239835547 :
What if my dog is only like this with one person? She’s terrified with no discernible reason. We assume this person smells like her cat, that’s literally all we can think of that bothers our little girl. She’s loud, but so are many others. Other people even have cats, we are just at a loss as to why she’s so reactive. The person feels insulted and I suppose I would too as an animal lover.
