A dog is quite an amazing animal when you think about it. It's naturally wild but can fairly easily be tamed to be a domesticated house pet. In most places of the world dogs are seen as suitable companions, workers, and members of the family. Although these dogs are tamed and trained sometimes they can still show signs of aggressive behaviour because of their natural instinct. This is something you cannot control, but you can highly influence how a dog will react in a given situation by training it the correct way.
Why Does This Happen
We all know why neglect and abuse can cause a dog to not behave correctly but there are some other not as well known reasons as to why a dog might show aggressive or destructive behaviour. When it comes down to it, the number one factor that is going to determine how a dog reacts is the environment that it lives in and how it is treated in its day to day life. Training also plays a very important role, as you have probably met a dog that is highly disciplined and listens to every command. Most owners of pets simply do not know how to train their animal. The number one problem I see reoccurring over and over again is promoting bad or irresponsible behaviour. Never encourage your dog in any way, shape or form if they are not doing what they are supposed to be doing. Show them that they are not doing the right thing. Likewise if a dog exhibits good or an outstanding attitude be sure to reward the dog, let it know it is doing the right thing.
Take Care Of Your Pet
Not understand what it takes to look after a pet can cause some serious problems. Dogs need to be able to trust their owner if they are expected to listen to them at all. Treat them right. Make sure you are paying attention to them, feed them, give your dog baths, and never leave it locked up in a cage all day. I know work can be long and tough but if you have to get the kids or hire someone to take your dog for walks. Dogs can get bored too and usually when they do they show destructive behaviour in order to put a little bit of excitement in their lives. Do not deprive your dog of a long, happy, healthy lifestyle.
