Training your dog to become aggressive towards other animals is not recommended and should only be attempted by experienced professionals. You will need to use methods such as positive reinforcement, along with increasing the levels of intensity and pressure in your training to condition an appropriate response in the dog. There are a number of risks associated with this kind of training and it must never involve physical punishment or cruelty.

It would be difficult to turn a friendly dog aggressive towards other animals as this is a learned behavior and requires patience, consistency and reinforcement from the owner. Expose the dog to scenarios where it may encounter other animals cautiously and reward calm behavior. Positive reinforcement of fear responses with treats can help desensitize them. Additionally, redirecting attacks/aggression by others will teach the dog that they should be aggressive towards other animals when provoked. Finally, correct negative actions with firm commands or citations from an authoritative figure can also be useful in reshaping an aggressive attitude towards other animals .
