Sometimes it seems that dogs are initially divided into peaceful and aggressive.

But this is not entirely correct.

Sometimes aggression can be provoked even in a friendly dog.

What actions can cause this?

Aggression of a person or another animal

If your dog is not a timid one, then he is unlikely to patiently watch another dog or an offender attack the owner. In this case, the pet can definitely stand up for his family.

At the same time, it doesn’t matter to the dog that the attackers look more intimidating and menacing.

Sharp movements

If a dog has a well-developed hunting instinct, it can sometimes behave aggressively towards cats and birds that try to abruptly change their position.

In this case, the animal becomes prey for the pet, which must be caught and hunted.

Violence

Sometimes a dog can be aggressive even towards its owner, but such cases are extremely rare. Most often, they are provoked by the fact that a person uses violence and pain as methods of education and behavior correction.
