Depending on your dogs breed and temperament, it may get into fights or scuffles with other dogs while out walking. Not only is this a tough thing for you and a frustrating thing when you are trying to get the time to enjoy the walk, but it can be a liability issue. This can be a major embarrassment to an owner as it reflects poorly on the dogs training if it can’t help itself from starting fights, and then if it subsequently ignores the owners commands to stop.
If your dog is starting fights with other dogs, it is vitally important that it is trained to be able to control itself so that he doesn’t hurt himself, and put you in any danger. In the short term here are some tips to avoid your dog getting into a fight, but the best solution is a well trained an obedient dog. Let’s take a look at some of the things you can do to make the best of a naughty dog.
If other dogs are around, make sure yours is on a short leash and under your control at all times. Many public places require that you have your dog on a leash, and that will be the thing that really makes a difference. All owners would prefer to let their dogs run free to get some exercise, but in crowded areas with a dog that tends to be aggressive with others that is not always possible. The good thing about a short leash, is that the dog can’t make a run and then jerk you around. Make sure you stay alert at all times and know where the nearest dogs are so you can predict and avoid a possible confrontation.
Dogs communicate largely through body language so pay attention to how the dogs look when around each other. If a dog has a dominant posture, and is even baring its teeth, trouble may be about to start. The more you know your dog, the better you will be able to recognize when something is going to happen. Sometimes dog fights will start without warning, but you can prevent many by being observant and recognising the signals.
The last thing to be aware of is knowing that some dogs are more aggresive than others. Dobermans, Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, and German Shepards can be known to be more aggresive. They are build very muscularly, and are fighting machines.
With a little bit of precaution, and a knowledge about your dog’s disposition paired with some good professional training, you can have a dog that is well behaved and a pleasure to take out!
