Canine aggression is cause for concern and can result in one of the thousands of dog bite incidents that occur each year. Untreated, canine aggression can pose serious risks to the dogs themselves and other animals and people. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pets living with behavioral problems typically suffer from fear, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/blog\/keep-pets-calm\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">anxiety<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and issues stemming from early development (e.g., lack of training and socialization). To effectively treat canine aggression, it\u2019s imperative to understand the root causes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Triggers and Underlying Problems<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aggression comes in many forms, including snapping, biting, chronic barking, resource guarding, and physical attacks. Some dogs target only other dogs or animals, while others may fear children or strangers. <\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding your dog\u2019s triggers and background provide insight about how to avoid dangerous encounters and how to redirect his or her behavior. Common reasons for aggression include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lack of socialization and obedience training<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">History of being abused or neglected<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Territorial aggression<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protective aggression, such as a mother with her puppies <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aggression as a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/blog\/pet-pain\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">response to pain<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or fear<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Social aggression (e.g., establishing order in a pack or vying for female attention)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Predatory aggression, such as chasing cats or smaller animals<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you know your dog\u2019s triggers, you\u2019re better prepared to avoid problematic situations while receiving professional help as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Contact Your Veterinarian<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your pet has displayed aggressive tendencies (even if it didn\u2019t result in an injury or emergency), do not wait for things to escalate before seeking help. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beverly Hills Veterinary Associates<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, we can work with you to rule out any health issues that may be causing canine aggression.

To discourage negative behaviors, try some of the following tips:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minimize exposure to triggers until your pet has shown improvement (through professional training).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you must take your pet out in public, consider using a cage-type muzzle.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spay or neuter your pet.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Provide a safe place in your home for your dog, especially when there are underlying fears or phobias.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Provide plenty of opportunities for exercise and playtime at home to avoid boredom or frustration.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay vigilant with your pet when supervising playtime at home or in the yard. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your pet\u2019s aggression is prompted by food, treats, or toys, keep these items out of sight when around other people and pets.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Canine aggression can be discouraging and even frightening. However, following the advice and treatment plan of your veterinarian and\/or a professional trainer can do wonders. With time and patience, many forms of aggression can be assuaged, making life happier and safer for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the worst scenarios for dog owners is knowing their cherished pet is prone to biting or other forms of aggression.
