You can begin by introducing your dog to other animals in a supervised, relaxed environment. Reward its good behavior, such as staying calm or being polite when introduced to a new animal. If the dog shows signs of aggression, interrupt the encounter and try again later. In addition, you can also reduce its food portion temporarily as it may be more intense when hungry. Finally, socialization and obedience classes with an experienced instructor might help him/her become more relaxed and less fearful with other animals in general over time.

There are a few methods for training your dog to be more aggressive. The first is Positive Reinforcement, which uses treats, toys and praise to reward desired behaviors like growling or barking in response to certain environmental triggers. Another method is negative reinforcement, which takes the opposite approach of positively reinforcing desired behaviors and punishing undesired behaviors. This can involve ignoring unwanted behavior and redirecting your dog when it shows signs of aggression by offering a better alternative. Additionally, using physical techniques such as corrections and force-f redirects should be used with caution as they may escalate rather than reduce the dogs’ aggressiveness.
