Understanding Aggressive and Reactive Dogs: A Guide for Owners

Dogs are often referred to as “man’s best friend,” and for good reason. They offer companionship, loyalty, and love. However, not every dog fits the mold of the perfect pet.

Dogs are often referred to as “man’s best friend,” and for good reason. They offer companionship, loyalty, and love. However, not every dog fits the mold of the perfect pet. Some dogs exhibit aggressive or reactive behaviors that can be alarming and challenging for both the owner and those around them. Understanding these behaviors is crucial for providing the right care and ensuring a safe environment for everyone involved.
What Are Aggressive and Reactive Behaviors?
Before delving into solutions and strategies, it’s important to differentiate between aggression and reactivity:
Aggression
Aggressive behavior in dogs can manifest in various forms, including growling, snapping, biting, and lunging. This behavior can stem from fear, territorial instincts, or even pain. Aggression often has a specific trigger, such as other dogs, strangers, or certain situations that provoke the dog.
Reactivity
Reactivity, on the other hand, is a more generalized response to stimuli that causes an over-the-top reaction. Reactive dogs may bark excessively, pull on the leash, or display intense body language when they see other dogs or people. Unlike aggression, reactivity doesn’t always lead to physical harm; however, it can still be distressing and disruptive.
Common Causes of Aggressive and Reactive Behavior
Understanding the root causes of these behaviors is essential for addressing them effectively. Here are some common factors that can contribute to aggression and reactivity in dogs:
Fear and Anxiety
Many aggressive behaviors stem from fear. A dog may feel threatened in certain situations and react defensively.
Lack of Socialization
Dogs that have not been properly socialized during their formative months may struggle to interact appropriately with other dogs and people.
Territorial Behavior
Some dogs are naturally protective of their home and may exhibit aggression towards perceived intruders.
Frustration
A dog that is unable to reach a desired object or person may become reactive out of frustration.
Pain or Medical Issues
Dogs in pain or discomfort may react aggressively when approached or touched.
Tips for Managing Aggressive and Reactive Dogs
Managing aggressive and reactive dogs requires a comprehensive approach that combines training, behavior modification, and environmental management. Here are some key tips to help you effectively manage these behaviors:
Understanding Triggers
Identify Triggers
Observe and identify what specifically triggers your dog’s aggression or reactivity. Common triggers include other dogs, people, certain noises, or specific situations (e.g., being approached while eating).
Keep a Record of Patterns with Behavior
Maintain a log of instances when your dog displays aggressive or reactive behavior. This can help you recognize patterns and anticipate situations that may provoke your dog.
Behavior Modification Techniques
Desensitization
Gradually expose your dog to their triggers at a distance or intensity that does not provoke a reactive response. Slowly decrease the distance or increase the intensity as your dog becomes more comfortable.
Counter-Conditioning
Pair the presence of the trigger with something positive, such as treats or praise. This helps your dog form a positive association with the previously feared or triggering stimulus.
Training Basics
Obedience Training
Teach basic commands (like “sit,” “stay,” “come,” and “leave it”) to give you control over your dog’s behavior in potentially challenging situations.
Focus on Impulse Control
Training exercises that promote impulse control, such as “wait” or “leave it,” can help your dog manage their reactions.
Management Strategies
Avoidance
In situations where you know your dog may react aggressively, avoid exposure to the trigger whenever possible until you have made progress with training.
Use of Leashes and Muzzles
When in public or around potential triggers, use a strong leash and consider a muzzle if there’s a risk of biting. Ensure that the muzzle is fitted correctly and that your dog is accustomed to wearing it. We offer a free training course on proper muzzle conditioning.
Create a Safe Space
Safe Retreat
Provide your dog with a designated area at home where they can retreat to feel safe and secure. This can be a crate, a specific room, or a quiet corner with their favorite toys and blankets.
Calming Environment
Create a calming environment by minimizing loud noises and chaotic activities, especially during training or when your dog is anxious.
Professional Help
If your dog displays severe aggression or you feel uncomfortable managing the behavior on your own, consider enlisting a professional.
Through our one-on-one sessions that we personalize to you and your dog’s needs, we’ll help you learn how to communicate with your dog and successfully overcome reactive behaviors ranging from barking and lunging to snarling and snapping.

How Much Time Do I Need to Invest in Dog Training?

Contrary to popular belief, dogs enjoy behavioral training. And it’s no wonder they do — their favorite human’s
attention and scrumptious treats are usually involved. What’s not to love?
Behavior training lessons are also a great way to bond with your furry friend and build a bridge of trust that will
last a lifetime. So, don’t be afraid to invest time in training your dog.
How Often and Long Should I Train My Dog?
Naturally, you may be wondering — how often should you train your dog, and for how long? These are important
questions, and the answers depend on a few factors.
Each dog will have unique training needs based on:
Breed: Some breeds are teeming with energy, like Labradors or border collies. You may be able to
hold their attention and train them quicker than a laid-back breed like a bulldog or basset hound.
Age: Just like a toddler needs to learn to walk before they can run, your pup needs to learn how to
be a dog before they can master commands. Wait until your puppy is at least five months old before you begin
training.
Background: Senior or rescue dogs may catch onto commands quicker than puppies. In other cases,
they may need more time to adjust. Each dog is unique!
Despite your dog’s breed, age or upbringing, dogs are usually eager to please. But they can also have short attention
spans — especially if they’re puppies or new to training.
We recommend training your dog in 15-minute intervals at a time. Otherwise, they may grow bored or become easily
distracted. The key to effective training is holding your dog’s undivided attention.
Practices Commands in Short, Consistent Sessions
As you begin training, find a quiet place to practice one command. Make sure your dog has mastered it before moving on
to the next. If you consistently dedicate 15-30 minutes to behavior training each day, you may be surprised at how
quickly your furry friend can learn with the help of positive reinforcement. But, again, each dog is unique. Some dogs
may take longer than others to train, and that’s okay!

A Guide to Well-Behaved Dogs for New Dog Owners
October 20, 2021

Bringing a dog home for the first time is an exciting experience. Every new dog owner wants to ensure that their new pup is given the love, care and attention that they need to truly thrive in their new home.
But being a first-time dog owner, much like the experience of being a new parent, can also be overwhelming. Ensuring that your dog is properly cared for and well-behaved can be a challenging task, and it can be difficult to know where to begin.
In this dog owner guide, we’ll walk you through several steps to ensuring that your new best friend is as well-behaved as possible. Here are four training tips for new dog owners!
1. Teach Your Dog Patience
Patience is a core foundation to having a well-behaved dog. Not only is a patient dog more enjoyable to be around, but a dog that practices patience is safer, not only to others, but to themselves as well.
The best way to teach a dog patience is to begin at home. When your dog tries to get your attention, whether it be to play, eat or be petted, it can be beneficial to not always give in to their request right away. Instead, you can recognize your dog by speaking to them, but carrying on with what you’re doing. You’ll want to ensure that your dog isn’t waiting too long so that they can realize that they will be rewarded for their patience. However, also ensure that you aren’t going out of your way to bend to the dog’s every whim immediately. Value your time as well as your dog’s.
The earlier you start practicing patience with your pup (and the younger the dog is), the more effective the results will be. If you’re struggling to get the behavior out of your dog that you wish for, consider having your dog work with a professional, like our trainers at Off Leash K9 Training.
2. Teach Your Dog Commands That Will Keep Him Safe
While dogs are an essential part of the family unit, it’s important to remember that they are first and foremost animals. It’s crucial to ensure that they are kept safe and that people and other animals they encounter daily are also safe.
One of the best ways to train a dog with safety in mind is to teach them to respond to verbal commands. Because dogs are often impulsive, it is important to implement safety rules early on to establish boundaries and keep your pup as safe as possible.
There are several verbal commands that you can train your dog to respond to. In fact, according to the American Psychological Association, dogs can learn up to 250 words in addition to hand gestures. Talk about a smart best friend!
Two easy commands that can make a world of difference in a dog’s safety are to come when called and to go outside only with permission. Additionally, ensuring that your dog understands how to stop and to stay can also be beneficial.
As an integral part of your family, your dog must stay safe. Teaching your dog commands can help them stay as safe as possible, while also making your life as a pet owner easier.
3. Establish Your Dog’s Hierarchy of Rewards and Use Positive Reinforcement
Did you know that dogs are more likely to repeat behaviors that they have been rewarded for? For example, if your dog gets a treat when they sit, they’ll be more likely to sit in the future. Just like with children, using positive reinforcement training with dogs can be an incredibly effective way to teach your dog valuable skills in a meaningful way.
There are several factors to establish when rewarding your dog through positive reinforcement. Consider the following:
Type of Reward
Dogs, just like their human counterparts, are much more likely to do something if they are rewarded with something that they like. Ensure that whatever you’re giving to your pup as a reward, whether it be a type of treat or a walk, is something that they enjoy.
Choosing the wrong type of reward can hurt your training, as your dog will be less likely to respond and repeat good behavior if they dislike the reward that they are receiving.
Rate of Reinforcement
Another important area to consider when rewarding your dog is how often you are reinforcing their behavior. If you are rewarding your dog too often, you may overwhelm them and confuse them. Reward them too little, and you risk your reinforcement training not sticking with them.
A simple way to ensure that you’re reinforcing your dog the right amount is to aim for your rewards to be frequent enough to keep the training session exciting. If you notice your dog losing interest, you may not be rewarding frequently enough.
Timing and Placement
How you deliver your treat to your dog can make all the difference during a training session. Just like the rate of your reinforcement, the timing of your reward should be as closely synced to the action that your pup is being rewarded for as possible. If you reward your dog too long after they have completed the positive action, they may not remember or draw the comparison for what they are being rewarded for.
Additionally, the placement of your reward can make a big difference in how your dog understands the positives of its actions. For example, if your dog is being rewarded for sitting, ensure that they are given their treat while they are still sitting. Quickly and accurately delivering a treat to your pup can ensure that your dog learns faster and bonds quickly with you during training.
4. Feed and Exercise Your Dog Regularly
Life is busy, and sometimes it can be difficult to remember that your dog needs to be exercised regularly to stay in top physical and mental condition. A dog that does not receive regular exercise is more likely to misbehave and act out, as well as develop health issues at a younger age.
Additionally, aim to feed your dog high-quality, healthy ingredients as part of a well-balanced diet to ensure that your pup is receiving the nutrients needed to be healthy, comfortable and active in their everyday life. An uncomfortable pet is more likely to act out and be less friendly.

New Puppy Checklist: Are You Ready for a Puppy?

Bringing home a new puppy is a big decision. Puppies are major commitments, and you don’t want to rush into owning one. Thousands of families adopt puppies every day because they bring so much joy and love into people’s lives. You may be wondering how to know if a puppy is right for you. Use […]
Bringing home a new puppy is a big decision. Puppies are major commitments, and you don’t want to rush into owning one. Thousands of families adopt puppies every day because they bring so much joy and love into people’s lives. You may be wondering how to know if a puppy is right for you. Use this new puppy checklist to help you make that judgment.
Have You Done Your Research?
First things first, sit down and do plenty of research before getting a new puppy. You’ll need to know what all is involved. Dogs are high-maintenance pets with lots of everyday physical and emotional needs. Make sure you’ll be able to provide everything your new dog will need. Even if you’ve had a pup before, read up on dog care — veterinarians and animal experts are always making discoveries.
If you’re thinking of buying from a breeder, conduct some research to find one that’s reputable and ethical. See if their prices are reasonable by comparing across several breeders. Remember, shelters are full of dogs who need a home. If you’d prefer to rescue, talk to others who have gone through the process.
Have You Researched Dog Breeds?
You’ll also need to know what type of dog is best for you. Different dog breeds are better suited to different lifestyles. For instance, bulldogs are couch potatoes, perfect for lounging around. If you live in an apartment with no yard, a bulldog might be the right choice. Meanwhile, border collies are high-energy dogs who need a yard to run in or a regular exercise schedule. If you’re big into fitness, a border collie could be the best option for you.
Choose a breed that will be happy with your accommodations and lifestyle. If you’re rescuing a mixed breed dog, find out what you can about the dog’s temperament and individual needs. All dogs are individuals, after all. While breeds tend to have traits in common, every puppy will be different. It’s always a good idea to ask the breeder or rescue volunteer about each puppy’s personality and habits.
Do You Have the Time?
When deciding whether to get a puppy, consider the time commitment. How much room do you have in your schedule? If the answer is, “Not a lot,” you might want to hold off. When you have a puppy, you’ll need time to train, walk and exercise it. You need to be prepared to get up every three to four hours to let it out until your pup is housebroken.
But that’s not all — you’ll also have to introduce your pet to lots of other people and dogs if you hope to raise a friendly, confident companion. Every trip you take with your puppy will require extra planning and preparation. Trips you take without your puppy will require planning, too — you’ll have to coordinate a dog-sitter or a stay in a kennel. A puppy will take up a lot of your time and energy. Be sure you can manage the time commitment before getting a puppy.
Can You Afford a Puppy?
Keep in mind, the arrival of a new puppy comes with a lot of expenses. Many new puppy owners underestimate the amount of money they’ll spend on their companion. Caring for a medium-sized dog with a life expectancy of 13 years can cost around $15,000. With proper budgeting and planning, though, you can still welcome this new member of your family home. When you bring home a puppy, be prepared to invest in all of the following:
Dog food: Nutrition is one of the most crucial aspects of pet care and can affect everything about your dog’s health. Depending on the dog food you choose, keeping your puppy well-fed can cost hundreds of dollars per year, if not more.
Health: From routine checkups to vaccines, prescriptions and emergencies, maintaining your dog’s health can cost anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars. Choosing a healthy breed or breed mix can help reduce these expenses to some extent. Even still, every dog will have basic health needs.
Grooming: How much you’ll spend on grooming depends on the breed you choose. Some breeds require professional grooming services, while others need little more than occasional brushing and bathing.
Toys and treats: It’s fun to shower a puppy with toys and treats — and treats are helpful when it comes to training. But you’ll need to factor this category into your puppy budget. Remember, lots of puppies are happy with simple, inexpensive toys, like tennis balls.
Pet insurance: A less fun but necessary expense is pet insurance. Depending on the plan you choose, pet insurance can help cover costs involving pet illness, injury and preventive healthcare. It’s a life raft in an emergency, but it’s also another cost to consider.
Training: Professional puppy training can make your life easier in the long run, as a well-trained dog will be happier and easier to manage. Puppy training could pay for itself in some ways, protecting your possessions from a misbehaved pup, so be sure to consider this in your budget.
Dog-proofing: You’ll also have to dog-proof your house and yard. That could mean adding a fence, buying baby gates for your doorways or stairways or investing in some throw rugs for potential accidents.
Miscellaneous items: Random but necessary items should also go into your budget. Remember the collar, leash, crate, dog-walking services and other miscellaneous items.
Are You Ready for Messes and Chewing?
If you’re wondering how to know if a puppy is right for you, ask yourself how upset you’d be if some of your furniture got ruined. If it would ruin your day, you may need to make adjustments before adopting a dog. Puppies can be destructive! They bite, chew, scratch and have accidents. You can only do so much to puppy-proof your house. While patient training will curb these behaviors, the occasional mess is inevitable, especially while your puppy is young.
Before getting a puppy, make sure you can handle messes. You might also consider putting valuable furniture items or heirlooms in storage or shutting them in a room where your puppy isn’t allowed to go. Investing in dog toys and playing with your puppy often can help unleash destructive energy in productive ways.

Bringing a new puppy home is a joyful, memorable experience. It’s also a lot of work. Puppies are adorable little creatures who might seem determined to act up. They require a lot of attention and patience, much like toddlers. One of the most common puppy misbehaviors is nipping or biting, ranging from annoying to downright painful. While it might seem cute at first, it’s a behavior you’ll need to correct before your puppy grows into a full-sized dog with a dangerous mouth full of razor-sharp teeth. You may be asking yourself, “How do I teach my puppy to stop biting?” With a little patience and the right techniques, you can end this habit for good. Use these tips to stop puppy biting and nipping.
Stop Playing Once the Biting Begins
While playing together, puppies chase, wrestle, pounce and nip each other. When one bites another too hard, the victim will yelp and stop playing for a few seconds. This behavior teaches puppies bite inhibition, knowing if they’re too rough, they’ll lose their playmate. You can offer a puppy the same lesson he’d learn from his littermates.
Once your puppy bites, end playtime right away. You might let out a high-pitched yelp or “Ow!” to show your puppy he’s caused you pain. Instead of jerking your hand or foot away, try to make it go limp, which will be unexciting for your puppy. Jerking motions can activate the puppy’s chase instincts, which may cause more biting. Then, turn around and tuck your hands into your armpits, giving your puppy a playtime time-out. Even a negative reaction is a response — refuse to give your puppy attention after biting. Ignore your puppy for 10 to 20 seconds, then resume playing. Yelp and stop playtime for softer and softer bites until your puppy learns to play gently. If biting continues, take a break from playing.
Even if a bite catches you off-guard and hurts you, always skip negative reinforcement. Never hit, hurt or yell at your dog — physical punishments can make a dog fearful and likelier to be aggressive. Steer clear of any discipline that might make your puppy afraid of you, as this can develop into long-lasting fear aggression. When it comes to puppy biting training, naughty behavior should receive no attention at all.
Distract Them With Something They Can Chew On
Puppies need to teethe, but not on your fingers or toes. When your puppy starts nipping, offer a toy instead. You’ll teach your puppy toys are OK to bite, but your skin is not. If your puppy continues trying to bite you, turn away and pause playtime. You can incorporate toys into your play — use a toy for tug-of-war with your puppy. Have it nearby during playtime and take it out when your puppy gets nippy. Try to keep tugging from becoming too aggressive.
Having toys on hand creates an ideal opportunity to teach your puppy “let go” or “leave it” commands. When a puppy has a toy in his mouth, hold a treat nearby and say “drop it,” “let go” or “leave it.” Be gentle, but precise with your words. When he drops the toy, offer him the treat along with some praise. Eventually, this will teach your puppy to give you objects without getting defensive.
Allow Your Puppy to Calm Down
Puppies sometimes bite when tired or overwhelmed. When your puppy gets bitey, offer a chance to calm down. Lead them to a crate or quiet space. Stay calm when leading your puppy — crates should be a safe space, not a source of punishment. After allowing your puppy a few moments to calm down, let it start playing again. A puppy can also be agitated if hungry, thirsty or in need of a potty break. Make sure you’ve fulfilled all your puppy’s basic needs.
Plenty of exercise is essential for a growing dog. If you keep your puppy cooped up too much, the biting problem is likely to worsen. Let your puppy burn off excess energy throughout the day. Go for walks, play fetch and take advantage of nearby dog parks. Keep activities mild — you can stunt a puppy’s growth with too much strenuous exercise. Socializing with other dogs is an excellent way for your puppy to learn appropriate behaviors.
Always Reward Good Behaviors Instead
Positive reinforcement is a powerful tool and an important element of puppy training. Offer rewards when your puppy:
Is calm, quiet and well-behaved.
Follows a command.
Accepts a toy in place of your hand or ankle.
The reward can be a simple “good girl” and a pat or a small treat — but be careful not to overfeed your puppy. Use these signals to teach your puppy proper behavior. They’ll soon associate good conduct with desirable results.
Discover which rewards your puppy seems to like best. It can help to make a list of possible rewards, in order of how happy they make your puppy. Save the best treats for the most challenging tasks. Offer rewards often enough to compete with natural ones in the environment. For instance, when teaching your puppy to heel, give enough positive reinforcement to make walking by your side more appealing than pulling you around, despite all the fun things outside. It’s also essential to deliver treats as soon as possible after observing the desired behavior, so your puppy makes the correlation. Over time, positive reinforcement teaches your puppy that learning is fun and following the rules is worth the effort. It’ll also support a strong bond between you and your puppy.
Puppy Training Classes Available in Howard County, MD
Puppies are lovable and adorable, but not always perfect angels. It takes a lot to raise a happy, healthy puppy. For the first few months with your puppy, it’s crucial to tailor your responses to their behavior. If you’re wondering how to keep a puppy from biting you, try the methods listed above. Use time-outs, distractions and toys to minimize biting. Always reward positive behavior with praise and treats.
Training a puppy can be challenging, as puppies can be unpredictable and hard to read. It’s always smart to enroll a puppy in a professional training class in Maryland.
