Aggressive Dog Training Wilmington
Aggressive Dogs Need Training. It’s not negotiable to take action and get help. Aggression does not get better on its own. In fact, it usually escalates if left unattended. If your dog is giving you warning signals now, heed them.
We understand that dog aggression is a highly stressful experience for both the dog and the owner. There are significant risks involved in dealing with an aggressive dog. We will consult with you on the full scope of these issues and be with you every step of the way. Even when it’s hard.
Generally speaking, it may take weeks of intense training to begin to see your dog’s aggressive behavior resolved. And you may have to live a new lifestyle with your dog to keep him in a healthy state of mind.

Not only are we going to explore training with your dog, be we’re going to look at his state of mind, his health (vet checks may be required), and factors like nutrition & emotions that may be contributing to the aggression problem. Ongoing training, consistency, discipline and support by the owner is essential for the life of the dog. In some cases, a commitment to managing the environment is necessary.
Training Aggressive Dogs Wilmington NC
Aggressive dog training programs include basic obedience skills, exploring & embracing breed instincts, feeding protocols, and relaxation techniques, We’re going to explore your consistency, leadership and the way in which you enforce rules and boundaries. These are essential foundations to gain trust and build a relationship with the dog.
A rewards-based approach is critical to correct these serious and dangerous behavioral issues. This brings your dog back to a calmer state of mind, creating a happier and better socialized animal. When your dog begins to trust the handler and to learn new responses to life-experiences we can move forward to modify behavior.
In all cases, aggressive behaviors need to be addressed with consequences significant enough to become a deterrent, create a new response from the dog, and end the poor behaviors. It would be an incomplete solution to simply attempt to replace the behavior with one that earns reward.
It will be our goal to identify the cause of the aggression and work with your dog to gain trust, confidence and understanding of alternative ways to respond. We will explore in-depth nutrition, breed instincts, and whole-dog wellness where appropriate to increase overall health of mind, body, and spirit. You may be required to modify your dog's diet, wellness protocols and environment.
Board and train may be recommended for these issues to allow the dog and family to relieve stress, regain balance for a period of time by learning foundation skills, living with consistency, structure and leadership in a daily immersion program.
Before you make any decisions about your dog's future-- consult with an expert and someone who will look beyond dog training for solutions that may include nutrition, wellness, detox, etc.
