Recognize Aggression In Your Dog #GetTough

Blogger Amy Shojai wrote an insightful post that will allow pet owners to recognize signs of aggressive behavior in their dogs. You don’t need to be the pet parent of a 100 pound dog to worry about aggressive behavior. I was the pet parent to my parent’s 13-year-old Chihuahua for the last two years of his life and even in his tiny four-pound body he was aggressive and I noted from Amy’s post that his was fear-motivated. He came from a quiet, two person household to our two dog, four cat, two ferret four person household; he couldn’t see and was scared no matter how we tried to comfort him.

Because April 8 is Dog Fighting Awareness Day, read this post so that you can understand the five types of aggressive dog behavior. Also, let’s #GetTough on dog fighting and put a stop to it.
