How to stop aggressive dog behavior?
Question by Noone you know: How to stop aggressive dog behavior?
When my dog and another are interested in the same toy, sometimes my dog will go berzerk and chase the other dog. He hasn’t hurt anyone but he nips and pulls at them while they run away whimpering. How can I teach him to share toys nicely? He only does this rarely.
My dog is completely submissive with me and other people. He *only* gets mad when another dominant dog is interested in the same toy or stick.

Teach him to allow you to take his toys (and food bowl) away without growling or snapping.
Every time he does that territorial possessive/aggressive behaviour owver a toy, make him DROP IT, LEAVE IT, and SIT or DOWN while you claim the toy and remove it (just for 30 seconds).
Only when he remains calm & submissive, do you return the toy to him.

well he can hurt someone if you let it get worst basis ob entice class will help you control your dog and give your dog mental stimulationn
Get him used to the fact he can’t have everything. If not get two of each or distract him with another toy.
I have two rotties who constantly argue over toys. The male will not let the female have any tennis balls, and the female will not let the male have any blankets.
That is NOT aggression. I have 10 dogs and it happens in my house. If I feel the need to step in to stop what I am sensing a serious fight, then I will. Otherwise, I let them work it out.
Well first of all if he cannot share the toys he is being dominate over all of them and that is what he is doing in not sharing.
What you can do is take the toy away from him the first time he tries this or stop him while he is chasing the other dog.
You first need control of your dog to do this and that is where you are the dominate one and not him and you have to show him he cannot take the toys or chase the other dog for the toy.
Tell him to leave it when he chases the other dog and if he refuses to listen, take the toys away till her learns to share and you will have to do this till he can behave.
Do not let him chase the other dog and stop him by putting a leash on him to stop him from running.
You need control over him and that is the first thing to do .
Once he stops with you and the leash and you say Leave It, the more you do it the more he will understand this and stop because he will know he can go no where if you have control over him with the leash.
that is where you will be dominant over him and he needs this to behave and then you can play with the toys and control him.
Dogs dont naturally share.
In my house, all toys and goodies belong to me, so there is no bickering.
If I say a dog can have a toy, then he can have the toy.
I would take the toy away from him whenever he starts a fight, and look into NILIF for your dog:
