behavior of the dog with age. You must understand that a well
socialized, breed and adjusted puppy or dog will never exhibit
on aggressive behavior. To sum up, dog attacks result due to
the lack of proper and positive training. There are some dog
owners, who employ fear inducing and painful training

schools run classes with other members and won't let them be
endangered.

mistake can lose its self- confidence. Praise your dog or award
it for a proper behavior instead. If your dog is not properly
socialized with different people, it begins to view all people
that are outside of the "pack", with distrust.
