Aggressive dogs are mostly misunderstood. It is fear mismanaged. Yet when they do become aggressive we must rehabilitate them in a safe and humane manner.

The dog in this video is aggressive and there could be many reasons why and I won't go into this just now. Yet, this is a very common occurrence for many dogs and it's very unfortunate. If you take the time to acquaint your dog with a brush, with a grooming table, with his body, ears, mouth, feet, nails, being touched, then grooming, medicating, or any kind of handling of your dog will be respectfully and willingly permitted and often times enjoyed. My dogs rolls over to get groomed.

Often times people don't take this time and the dog suffers, while injuring yourself or someone else in the process. Now we are dealing with undoing aggressive behavior that with just a little preparation time and leadership skills, we would never be having to deal with.

But when it is a reality and your dog needs behavior modification, please make sure that you call in a professional dog behaviorist who will not only be able to help your dog, but also help you become the leader so you can groom your dog or put medication in her ears or whatever you need to do to keep your dog healthy and vibrant.

How did he not poke an eye out with those scissors so close to that dogs eye? Or was that edited out of the shot? Who knows, but what I do know is that dealing with an aggressive dog needs time, patience and a whole lotta know how.

Seek a highly recommended trainer who specializes in humane ways of modifying aggressive behavior.
