In this article I will discuss 4 types of dog aggression that could be a warning sign to the owner that his Dog is in need of professional help.
Four types of dog aggression are:
1. Dominance Aggression Toward People
2. Interdog Dominance Aggression
3. Fear Aggression
4. Territorial Aggression
Dominance aggression toward people: Dominance is the driving force behind all canine aggression. Without dominance dogs would not be able to stand up for themselves. Even a Shih Tzu with a submissive type temperament will have a small amount of dominance behaviors, enough to warn intruders off a favorite food, toy or circumstance.
Protection of the dog's valued assets can be virtually the only sign of dominance. An aggressive response by a dominant dog may also occur when the dog is prevented from doing something it wants to do, in response to manipulations around the head and neck or when the dog is disciplined.
Different dogs have different priorities with regards to what will “tick them off.” Dominance aggression is also dependent upon the time, place and circumstance. Dominant dogs are not likely to become aggressive toward the person he perceives as his leader. Dominance aggression is the primary way dogs establishes their hierarchical structure and relationships with each other. Therefore, some dominance aggression in dogs is to be expected.
Inter dog dominance aggression: This is a dog that constantly picks fights with other dogs. The subordinate dog defers to a dominant dog by averting his eyes; holding the head low, body hunkered down, tail tucked or held low, which is the canine equivalent of waving a white flag. Treatment of aggression between dogs is not easy. You can, however, keep your interdog dominant dog on lead when he is likely to be confronted with other dogs. Seek professional help if your dog continually exhibits this type of aggression.
Fear aggression: Fearful and insecure dogs may exhibit aggression whenever they feel threatened. Often there has been a point in these dogs’ lives when they were exposed to some unpleasant experience involving a person or another dog. Many dogs from rescues, pet shops or puppy mills may acquire fear aggression. A dog purchased from a reputable breeder and then mistreated by new owners can also acquire fear aggression. Fear aggression involving people are often men and children, and almost always strangers. Professional help is often needed for this type of dog and most often the cause for the fear aggression can be ascertained.
Territorial aggression:
Some dogs' aggressiveness to strangers and other dogs occurs when they are approached within their own space or territory. The territory can be the owner’s home and property. They will bark and otherwise attempt to intimidate intruders until such time as it is clear that the visitor is welcome by the owners.
One very positive side of dog aggression is that a good guard dog is better than any alarm system. A house with a dog is far less likely to get burglarized. Many times the house with the dog or dogs remains unmolested. Just having a dog with you as you walk is a deterrent for many would-be attackers.
