This book does not just discuss aggression. It describes in great detail protocols to use for behavior modification. Starting with prevention, the reader learns about common mistakes owners make to promote aggression in their dog, and how to avoid these mistakes. In the behavior modification section, you will learn about how to build trust with the dog, using positive reinforcement. Shows how to achieve this level of trust with hundreds of exercises to promote appropriate behavior and modify inappropriate behavior. In the practical management section, the reader is prepared for a lifelong regimen of keeping his dog safe. The exercises in this book will be a salvation for problem dogs and a guide for prevention for others. Anyone involved with dogs will find a wealth of information about dog behavior in these pages and practical "do-able" solutions for problems.
eview
Brenda Aloff is a pioneer in our field. Clicker trainers have proven that it can be done with competition obedience, agility, flyball, service dogs, indeed in all fields of what might be called performance training. But Brenda takes our technology into a field long considered the ultimate bastion of the force trainer: rehabilitating and training the aggressive dog. Brenda shows clearly, most importantly through her detailed case histories, that one can address the issues posed by these dogs in a constructive, effective way without losing oneself in the murk of dominance theory and all of the mythology that surrounds it. This book is a worthwhile and necessary addition to any serious trainer's library. --Morgan Spector, author of Clicker Training for Obedience
There are standards in the world...Campbell's on soup, Bud on beer and now, Aloff on aggression. Almost every dog training book I've ever read has provided me with some gem, or at least some tidbit, I can use. This book, however, is the mother lode. If you need to understand aggression, Aggression in Dogs is the book for you! --Missy Parker, RVN, President, National Association of Dog Obedience Instructors
This book is a must have for all trainers, kennel personnel, veterinarians and support staff. Not just for aggressive animals, Aggression in Dogs is an excellent reference tool for anyone interested in understanding canine behavior and the prevention of aggression. The protocols are field-proven effective. --Robert Wenzel, DVM
Author Brenda Aloff is a professional dog trainer specializing in problem behavior.
