A few nights ago our Los Angeles Dog Training office received a phone call from our friend John of Super Pawz a pet sitting company based out of long beach ca. He explained to our office that he had met a family that were in need of his services, but once he arrived he was surprised with a fear aggressive dog. The family had informed John that they have been seeking help for months. Knowing of our experience with dog behavior modification, John let us know that he recommended us to the family. This video is by no means an instructional video, it is meant to show you a day in our life as professionals. We recommend you seek the guidance of a true professional with any dog behavior problems. Remember, “Talk is cheap, we show you!”

Question by ms c: What would you consider aggressive behavior from a dog?
My dog loves going to the off-leash dog park but one of the park rules is that any dog exhibiting aggressive behavior should be removed immediately. What exactly is considered aggressive behavior?
My dog runs up to other dogs while making growly noises with no teeth bared and then trying to make the other dogs run with him and chase him. Sometimes other dogs initiate play with him and he runs with them while growling. Is this considered aggressive behavior? I just need to know where exactly to draw the line.

Answer by ♥percy-pigs♥
I would consider aggresive behaviour, barking/snarling with teeth bared. You’ll know when you see it.

How do i get my rat terrier to stop growling and snapping when another dog comes in his space?
Good Vid
Cool vid but why does the dog look like it has a home-docked tail? ugh.
he did quite good he used some cesar millan (dog whisperer) technices
Thank you for posting this! We adopted a fear aggressive (toward other dogs, not humans) Chihuahua last week, and your video reinforced the approach we’ve taken with her. The shelter said she’s fearful, but not aggressive; now we’ve got to get her to relax with our gentle Lab/Akita. It’s a lot of work, but we WILL get her through this.
Discipline is necessary, but so is reassurance. It’s so refreshing to see someone not out to be the “alpha” and especially at the cost of the dog’s stability!
He indeed didn’t do a great job…. he did a wonderful job at handling and soothing her. Contrary to what the “Dog Whisperer” and other such shows/stories portray, there is no such thing as a quick fix. Humans go through months to years of rehabilitation/therapy, and so do dogs. This video wasn’t about “curing” her in one episode. It was about handling a fear aggressive dog and gaining her trust, respect, and most importantly showing her owners how to continue working with and helping her.
GREAT JOB what the fuck mann that dog is still mean as hell cant no body touch him and hear you go GREAT JOB
great job!
A dog protecting its territory will move forward and bite eventhough it has enough space. Other than that very good advice.
im usto handling dominate,animal aggresive,protective dogs, never had a dog that acted like that,overly nervis
u repeat that advice alot dont ye? the same words!
Even an unfriendly dog to begin with, will not bite if it has enough room to live in otherwise. Check that you do not look like a robot commander but instead like a friendly aunt coming to visit with a cake. Keep that atmosphere and praise the dog for behaving well, look sad and distant (and no cake coming) if the dog misbehaves, then as the situation calms down even for a short while try again with the friendly aunt atmosphere…
Fantastic example of every dogs transformation potential!

I think they mean towards people
I get nervous when I go to the dog park and other dogs growl at my dogs. I don’t say anything though. If the other dog starts reacting badly (nipping, biting) at my dogs, I simply leave. It’s easier to just leave and come back at another time since it rarely happens.
humping, teeth snarling, biting, nipping, barking, growlin (in a non play sense), pretty much exhibiting dominant behavior.
Well, my dog does the exact same thing, but we don’t let him off leash as much. This may be considered aggressive behavior to the people who own the park and might make you leave. You should watch The Dog Whisperer. It’s great, and my dog has gotten A LOT better. If you already do, then just do what he tells you, and you should be able to make your dog better. If you got him recently from an adoption center or something, it might be because of his past, and you just have to gain his/her trust. I hope this helped!.♥♥♥
(BTW “The Dog Whisperer” is on the National Geographic Channel)
There’s a big difference between play growling and aggressive growling. If your dog is running around playfully, rather than remaining still and stiff, he’s most likely play growling.
Behaviors I consider aggressive are:
Growling
Beared teeth
Barking with offensive posture
Barking with growling in between
Stiffness when approached
Frozen stance when toys or food is approached
Fixed stare
That’s aggresive
What is the dog’s posture like? Is his head down? Tail up? These are signs the dog is acting aggressive or fearful.
Is it wagging? Does the dog initate play with a play bow? Probably just growls when playing.

here’s a good page on it.
can you take his food away from him when he is eating?? if so he is not aggresive,,is he dominant eg does he hump other dogs he meets?? that is a sigh he wants to be the boss,,i think what your dog is showing is i want to be friends,,come with me and have fun,,he sounds fine,,,what is he anyway??
my staffy mix growls a lot while playing, but she is only playing. some dogs are more vocal than others just as some play a little rougher than others. aggressive would be more like snarling, teeth bared, raised hackles (not always aggression), frozen tense stance, head lifted with ears back and a fixed stare(usually they will stare at the other from the side or corner of the eye instead of straight ahead)
you should also try doing a little research on reading a dogs body language… from what you describe it doesn’t really sound like he is exhibiting aggressive behavior, but you are the one who will have to be the real judge of that.
no he’s jus sayin play with me
Growling in itself is not aggression. Dog A is aggressively trying to mount dog B, and dog B does a warning growl to say “stop it, I will not submit”, then walks away. In this situation, dog A (who never growled) is the aggressor, and the growler dog B is trying to prevent an incident.
