Possessive Aggression In Dogs
Possessive Aggression in dogs is common among dogs that do not have companions around them all the time; they tend to bond with their owner and they tend to believe that they are their protectors. While we all would like a dog that protects us; there is a big difference between dogs that protect us from strangers who may harm us or dogs that protect us because they do not want anyone to come close to us.
If you are dealing with possessive aggression in dogs and are trying to figure out how you can regain your freedom there are some things that you can do to begin having your dog become less possessive of you.
First of all most likely you have not provided enough discipline to show them that you are the boss. They have to understand that they are the followers and that you are the boss. One of the main reasons that a dog will become obsessive of their owner is because they feel that they are the alpha dog in the relationship.
This usually occurs when the dog owner does not provide the proper discipline. They let the dog do pretty much anything that they want. They either do not want to discipline their canine friend because they are afraid that they will hurt their feelings or they think of them as a human and do not want to be firm.
If you are dealing with this problem; one of the first things you have to do is begin proper obedience training. You have to begin showing your pet that you are the owner and that you are not willing to tolerate this behavior. The great thing about dogs is that they usually pick up on the training very quickly.
As long as you are persistent on your training and do not give up on your pet; they will develop into the type of dog that you love to have and will make your life better because you will get your freedom back.
If you do not know how to begin training your pet; I highly recommend that you get the best dog training guide that will help you mold your pet into the type of dog that you would love to call your own. Click Here

Please help us!!! we have a bull dog- boxer mix, his name is Rex and hes 1yr and 3months old. we also have a female dog who we had a few months longer. I have a 3 month old at home and they both do pretty well with him but my concern is that rex has become VERY possesive of my husband and I in the past few weeks, when our other dog (Smash) comes close to either one of us rex snaps and they start to fight. They never fought before this, they always got along great. I must admit weve sort of babied him. both of our dogs are rescues, and when we got him home we dicovered he had a broken leg and pnuemonia. He also wouldnt eat for about 2 weeks, so you can understand why he got special attention, but it still doesnt explain why now, 6 months after his full recovery, he is being aggresive. At this time we neither have the time nor money to bring him to “official” training and i am wide open to suggestions. please help, i love this dog too much to have to give him away. Thank you so much!
