Heavy Duty Dog Crates Help In Calming Your Agitated Or Aggressive Dog
If you see any of these signs in your dog then you probably have an aggressive or easily agitated dog.
- Shows fear when around other dogs.
- Shows panic or fear when startled by sounds. Thunderstorms are a good example.
- Becomes aggressive when around some other dogs.
- Loves to chase vehicles, bicycles or anything with or without wheels that is moving.
- Consistent barking.
- Separation anxiety in dogs
- Shows aggressiveness around visitors.
- The ever popular destruction of furniture or other items within the home.
- Often ignores commands from pet parent due to excitability.
What are some of the causes of this behavior? Before the correct treatment or training can be determined one should know the causes or source of the aggressiveness or agitation.
- Some breeds tend to be more aggressive than others. Human behavior can contribute to the problem.
- Not enough quality time with the human parent.
- Pet parents of these types of dogs must know proper training techniques in order to be a successful "Alpha" to get calming results desired.
- Dogs like to see pet parents on a regular schedule much like children I suspect.
- Your dog can pick up on your mood so be calm during your interactions if you expect calmness from your dog.
- Some believe that should a strong dog is removed from its mother prior to 7 weeks that puppy will not learn certain social skills taught by the mother such as not biting and much more.
- Many rescue dogs act out what they have learned from their previous negative experiences.
- Stresses in the pet parents life or significant life changes can cause agitation such as divorce, birth of a child or separation all of which may mean less time spent with the your dog.
- Not enough exercise especially if there is a large dog in a small home. You dog will need 1 to 2 hours walking per day.
- Sudden reduction or elimination of daily walks and runs will be interpreted by your dog as a serious decrease in the size of their territory. This can lead to confusion and then to aggressiveness.
How can you solve these problems and get your dog back on the road to calmness and responding to commands? You should start now with the following actions.
- Increase the exercise time with your dog.
- Get a good dog crate. There are so many uses for the dog crate. One use is short time outs. Once you dog is calm again give him a treat and let him out. No toys or food inside the crate please. A time out is a time out. A heavy duty dog crate is recommended for medium and large agitated or excitable dogs.
- I recommend a Heavy Duty Dog Crate since many aggressive and agitated dogs have "chewing" issues. Do not keep replacing crates if you have a chewer. It is costly buying better and better dog crates only to see them chewed through or the door pushed open. In addition, the veterinarian bills from tooth damage can get expensive.
- Find a good dog trainer or dog training course and start now. Get educated then start educating your dog. Time, attention and proper training techniques will make a big difference.
- Doggie and parent playtime is important but never in an aggressive or combative fashion.
- Congratulate your dog when he or she is acting calm or good especially when you can see the positive change in their actions.
- Do not be afraid to be the alpha dog, the leader. Be stern but loving.
This can happen in all sizes and breeds. The problem is more severe in the strong dog and large dog breeds for obvious reasons. Your small dog is easier to control once he is overly excited.
There are so many great dog trainers available on the internet and most have books and recorded video media and other ways of educating yourself so you can make a difference in your aggressive dogs' life.
It is a simple fact, and I think you will agree, that a calm and happy dog will improve quality of life for him and the whole family. Everyone can relax more often without worrying about your dog or your guests. It is worth the time and effort.
Here is a quote I found that should cause you to stop and think of what your special friend means to you and your responsibility to him or her.
"She is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are her life, her love, her leader. She will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of her heart. You owe it to her to be worthy of such devotion." ~~Unknown"
