Many dog owners get upset when they notice their pets showing aggression towards other dogs.
At the same time, a completely friendly attitude towards people and cats can be maintained.
This significantly complicates the process of walking, since the owner has to be in constant tension. However, there are important reasons for such behavior that are worth knowing about.
Why is the dog aggressive towards its fellows?
The animal has low self-esteem
It is not only humans who can have problems with self-esteem: animals can be subject to this too, experts say. In order to assert themselves, the dog begins to behave very aggressively.
Therefore, you need to think about why the dog began to feel insecure.
Problem breed
Some dogs have an innate tendency towards aggressive and dominant behavior. As a rule, we are talking about "serious" breeds - service and fighting dogs.
It is important to understand that such animals need to be taken care of from childhood. In this case, there will be no problems with aggression.
Socialization
If you rarely allow your dog to communicate with its relatives, the dog may be aggressive. A long absence of social contacts does not reflect well on the animal.
