Apr 22, 2021 Episode 17
Michelle Stern

In this episode, I talk with certified dog behavior consultant and trainer Michael Baugh, CDBC, CPDT-KSA, about aggression in family dogs. We discuss how families can improve safety, help the dog to feel better, and how to assess if it's too much for the family to handle. The safety of family members, especially children, is a priority and we discuss options to help parents set up everyone for success.

We discuss:

  • management vs. training
  • preventing aggressive behavior
  • what to do if a dog is aggressive to kids
  • living with an aggressive dog and kids

Thank you for listening!
