Now that we know a bit how it works canine hierarchy as are the relationships between dog and human family, let's take a look at the life of Jack, a German shepherd 2 years.
Jack came home surrounded by an atmosphere of joy when she was 3 months old. Since then forgot the whole family is a dog and was treated like a member of the family. He spent his life enjoying long walks around town pulling its owner, Tony, it cost too much effort to direct it, so I really was ridden by Tony Jack. He was the first to eat, so the table then supplementing your diet with what the family offered their dishes. Jack was not difficult to take control of the sofa, but he felt no interest in remote control bed and then Tony was his usual place to sleep. In his two years Jack was the one who decided when to leave and when to eat, and the whole family obeyed his orders. Never looked away any of its owners and sometimes it was difficult to move around the house because Jack was put forward and had to go around to pass.
What is happening at this point is that they have reversed roles, rather than the dog that obeys its masters, the masters are those who obey the dog, often not realizing this situation and Jack sometimes obeys them, but do it because you fancy. Attempts to correct this situation will usually be answered by grunts, Announcements be ignored that a bite can kill their masters. Jack has become the leader of the pack, and their masters his subordinates.
our dog's family may feel surprised at his behavior, coming to think even that is an ungrateful because I have always treated like a king. Nothing is further from reality, clearly the fault of the masters who have humanized, totally ignoring the social norms dog. Correcting this problem of dominance aggression involves a change of mentality and attitude of the masters.
Ideally, as always in these cases, see a specialist who can help us to treat the disorder of our dog, because even if the bat can think that the only solution is to put the animal, most cases can be solved. Physical punishment has always ruled out, we will only worsen the dog's reaction. Before starting treatment, the family has to understand what the rules of social conduct of the dog and take their share of fault in causing this situation.
To correct this behavior requires a training process which should involve all the family and under the supervision of a specialist. Add to that castration for males, and the use of drugs. Related
