German shepherds aggressive tendencies should never be ignored. Some shepherds take out their aggression on neighborhood cats, dogs and squirrels. Others show their aggression with strangers. Dog aggression is a very risky problem and must be taken care of right away!
Nine Steps to stop German shepherds Aggressive Behavior:
Step one:
In the wild, German shepherds live in packs and want to please their pack leader...their Alpha Dog.
German shgepherds that show aggression often are testing their owners to see who is boss. You can stop this by becoming his Alpha Dog and the leader of your pack.
A dog that thinks you're the leader of his pack will work hard to do whatever you want him to do...including stopping his aggression problems.
Your dog must know who's in charge and what's expected of him. By controlling what and when he eats, where and when he relieves himself, when he takes walks, wakes up in the morning and goes to sleep at night, you become his Alpha Dog.
Never feel guilty about taking control over him. He'll feel more secure knowing that all of his wants and needs are provided for by you. A dog that feels secure and looks to you for his every need is not very likely to demonstrate German shepherds aggressive tendencies.
Step Two: You can stop your German shepherds aggressive behavior with your other dogs by feeding, walking and letting them sleep in separate rooms. Your shepherd won't feel threatened or want to dominate your other dogs if they're removed from his presence at stressful times. Work on these steps and you and your dog will have many happy years together.
Keeping your dogs separated won't be necessary once they accept you as the leader of their pack. Then, they'll do exactly what you want them to do. If you want them to get along well together, that's what they'll do. Remember, they want to please you...their Alpha Dog.
