aggression

Hi guys. I’m trying to get a Headstart on the situation before anything bad happens. We have an overly loving, goofy, intact male dobie that’s has recently started to exhibit a strange form of aggression - initially to extended family members who we knows and love but hasn’t seen for a long...

Hi, I am new to this forum and found it after doing some online research for my current puppy. I have a 15 month old male (neutered) Doberman. He has been to multiple basic obedience training programs and has always been spoken highly of. Ive had him since he was 8 weeks and have raised him...

Hi all :) I’m new to this site, and I have been reading threads on this but couldn’t find any that matched our situation. I’m really worried my puppy has turned quite a negative corner. He is almost 5 months old, and despite the fact we couldn’t ‘cuddle’ because of the puppy biting, I...

Hello all, I am looking for some advice and guidance. I have a 3 year old very strong and large male Doberman. He has a very high prey drive which most of the time is fine and can use to my advantage with exercise and training. His obedience is pretty good I.e knows his commands, walks very...

We had a Doberman before. We got her when she was an adult and she was pretty chill right from the beginning. I also grew up with Dobermans in our family but I don't remember any specifics about their training. A year after our sweet Stella passed away from DCM (she was 11 1\2, we had her 10...

My boy is 8 yrs old and of late has gotten more aggressive when the other dog or cats so much as walk by or look at him if he has a special toy or is near his food. He has never been aggressive with people and the training for resource guarding suggests using myself as the "tool" by giving him...

Hey guys I could really use some advice or your take on point of view, so my family and our 1yr old Doberman cooper went out to the park to practice some baseball with the kids, every thing was fine until we spotted a person with a loose dog (husky) So we didn’t pay much attention to it hoping...

Hi we first got Bailey at 8 weeks and hes been really good, sitting, staying, paw and generally very affection a bit like velcro at times as he always wants you. He was doing well with controlling the power of his biting, it was becoming very gentle. We took him to the vet to get his 2nd...

Hi there! I have two male dobermans who turned 3 in January. They are only 6 days apart in age but are not litter mates. I got Duke when he was 6 weeks old and is an absolute sweetheart. He is my shadow and sleeps with me every night. When Duke was 10 weeks old we adopted Max from an ad. So they...

Hi guys! So we are having some problems and I would REALLY appreciate any/all advice and tips. So we have a almost 2 year old male unfixed doberman (Duke), and a 2 1/2 year old male unfixed pit-mix (Saint). We have had both since puppies, and they have always got along extremely well. Almost too...

So we got our Doberman about 6 weeks ago. She seemed fine the first day but the second day she started biting. Obviously this is natural because she’s a puppy and all puppies bite, but since then she’s still been biting and we’ve tried all sorts of stuff that helps normal puppies. Letting your...

So I recently rescued a three year old Doberman and he is so sweet! He’s still in that adjustment period but he’s exhibiting small signs of aggression towards strangers. He’s will nip if someone he doesn’t know tries to touch him. Plus he will bolt if he’s taken off leash, these two things...

A person who maddy had bonded with from the time I adopted him and who visits about every 6 weeks (but in the beginning spent a lot of time walking and being with him and every time she arrives he wants to play with her) but today was different. A little more background....over time I have given...
