As trainers who are called in on aggression issues all the time this is a topic that we deal with frequently.

Although most aggression cases can be fixed, there are times that due to the dog, the family or the situation itself euthanasia is the right choice. Whether you call it euthanasia, putting the dog down or putting them to sleep, this is a tough choice that is hard on the entire family.

Rehoming a dog can be a great option for some aggression cases, but not for others. If your dog has resource guarding issues and you have a baby in the home then rehoming could work extremely well. On the flip side, if you have a large aggressive dog that has attacked new people, finding the right home to continue his training can be difficult or impossible.

Follow our advice in the podcast to think through how much of a danger your dog is to yourself and others and then consider all of your options.

How should your dog behave off leash? A lot of people allow their dogs to be jerks when they are off leash and this creates so many issues. Not only does your dog need to be well trained and listen off leash, but you also need to be respectful of others. Having a strange dog rush you can be terrifying for some people and as you will hear in this episode it can be deadly to the dog.
