Understanding Aggression in Dogs

An aggressive dog might display concerning behaviors like biting, lunging, snapping, growling, loud barking and resource guarding. These emotions can make the dog appear scary, unapproachable and out of control. 

But the thing is, most dogs display aggression because they’re afraid, anxious, remembering past traumas or reacting to physical pain. Proper training can help your dog learn to work past these negative emotions and lessen their reactivity. That’s where Sit Means Sit comes in.

The Benefits of Aggressive Dog Training

No one—dogs included—feels good when they’re scared, anxious or angry. That’s why helping your pup overcome aggression is such an important stepping stone toward ensuring they live a full, happy life. Sit Means Sit’s trained experts will use proven methods to teach your dog how to:

  • Reduce reactivity, biting and other potentially dangerous behaviors.
  • Gain confidence and feel less anxiety in new, potentially scary scenarios.
  • Better their socialization skills when introduced to new people and animals.
  • Trust their owner to have their best interests at heart in different situations.

Each of these adjustments can help your dog work past the triggers of aggression and focus on new, positive behaviors. At the end of the day, they’ll gain the reassurance they need to feel less insecure in all aspects of their lives.

How Our Aggressive Dog Training Program Works

From day one, our team will work with you to find the root of your dog’s aggression and create the perfect environment for them to overcome their issues.

Tail-Wagging Reviews From Satisfied Buffalo Customers

Highly recommend Sit Means Sit. They are super knowledgeable and made the training process easy to understand and fun. They also took the time to explain the “why” and methodology of how they train which is extremely helpful. Rescuing a 3.5-year-old dog, I wasn’t sure that training was possible, but it’s not true what they say, you can teach an old dog new tricks!

Are you struggling with your dog’s behavior or training or just looking to build a better bond with your dog…I would highly recommend Sit Means Sit! I encourage anyone who thinks their dog can’t be trained or helped to set up an appointment, you won’t regret it. Best choice I made for myself and my dog!

I started my dog with Sit Means Sit when she was a puppy. I have been nothing but impressed with their knowledge, expertise in all dog breeds, and willingness and ability to work with and improve behaviors in every dog. I was so happy with the training, I decided to continue to take my dog to classes every week. We continually learn new skills, tricks and obedience. I am happy and my dog is happy. I will recommend Tom Longnecker and his Sit Means Sit to anyone and everyone.
