As I walked through the aisles of Home Depot recently, I witnessed a dog owner 'correcting' his anxious dog. The realization struck me that so many well-intentioned folks are led astray on how to manage and address their dog's fear and aggression.
This episode peels back the layers of commonly accepted, but misguided, dog training methods that dominate online forums and the advice from many dog trainers.
With each pop of the prong collar, it's clear we need to have an urgent discussion about why these punitive measures do more harm than good - and are even dangerous when done in venues like Home Depot.

When Dogs Roll Over for "Belly Rubs," What Does it Really Mean?
In my latest episode of Dog Aggression Answers, I delve into the complexities of canine aggression, focusing on the mixed signals dogs exhibit, like rolling over for a belly rub while simultaneously displaying aggression towards certain people. I explain that a dog's decision to roll over is often a sign of fear or submission, not an invitation for affection.
This behavior, known as 'submissive rolling' is classified as a 'calming signal' or 'appeasing behavior' and is one of the ways dogs indicate discomfort or fear, akin to a human's gesture of raising hands in surrender. This is a misunderstanding where humans interpret this as a desire for physical contact, which can actually exacerbate the dog's fear.Further in the podcast, I explore the factors that influence a dog's reaction to strangers, including the size and gender of the person, their movements, and how they engage with the dog. Dogs often find men more intimidating due to their size and their more mechanical types of movements. Interestingly, dogs may react more positively to people who show indifference or less interest in them, as their lack of engagement with the dog can be less threatening.
My advise to dog owners on how to manage interactions between their anxious dogs and strangers: my key recommendations include instructing people not to look at, touch, or talk to the dog and to maintain a distance, especially if the dog shows signs of fear or stress. This approach can significantly improve the dog's comfort and behavior.
