Welcome to Dog Aggression Answers, where we show you how to address your dog’s aggression using scientific and humane methods. My name is Scott Sheaffer and it's my mission to help you understand your dog’s aggression and what you can do about it. In today's episode, you'll learn some important basic concepts to make your dog less stressed around strangers. You can implement these concepts with your buddy right now. Some dogs seem to go on high alert when a stranger is in sight. On today's episode, I offer valuable insights into the world of canine fear and aggression towards people they don't know. We'll uncover the often-misunderstood signals dogs use to communicate discomfort and the crucial dos and don'ts for humans. The revelation that most aggressive dogs only trust a handful of humans will change how you perceive their interactions with the world. Prepare to step into a journey toward creating a more peaceful existence for your four-legged companion and the strangers they meet along the way.FacebookScott Sheaffer's Free & Premium Training VideosScott Sheaffer's Dog Behavior ArticlesBook an Online or In-Person Session with ScottAbout Scott SheafferScott Sheaffer, CCBC-KA, CDBC, CPDT-KA, is a certified dog behavior consultant who has worked with thousands of dog owners and their aggressive dogs.
