Training your dog to be aggressive towards other animals can be achieved through several methods. The most important is socialization and habituation; this involves repeatedly exposing your dog to other animals in a controlled and gradual manner, allowing them to get used to the presence of these individuals. Furthermore, desensitizing your dog from the scent and presence of other species can help, by associating a pleasing reward with another animal. Positive reinforcement such as treats and praises should also be used when training for desired behaviours in the case where an aggressive behaviour might arise. In extreme cases it could involve punishing aggressive behaviours through corrections such as voice commands, physical constraints or medical means (such as mild sedatives).

It is not advisable to deliberately try and train your dog to be aggressive towards other animals; a better solution is to provide the proper socialization andtraining at a young age. For example, exposing the dog to different individuals and situations can help them learn how to react properly around other creatures, thereby reducing their naturalfriendliness while also maintaining their trust. Additionally, professional trainingcan help desensitize dogs and allow themtounderstand acceptable behavior amongst various animals safely.
