What To Do If Your Dog Gets Too Aggressive
PLEASE!! IF YOUR DOG SHOWS ANY OF THESE SIGNS, PUT THE LEASH ON HIM/HER AND LEAVE THE PARK IMMEDIATELY. YOU CAN COME BACK AND TRY AGAIN ANOTHER DAY. IT IS MUCH BETTER TO LEAVE WITH NO ALTERCATIONS THAN TO BE BANNED FROM COMING BACK BECAUSE OF THE DOG HAVING A BAD DAY.
Don't be offended if a person tells you that your dog is being overly aggressive. It is not an attack
on either your or your dog. Dogs, like people, sometimes just have bad days.
We want every dog and human to feel and be safe while using the dog park. Failure to leave when your dog is aggressive can result in not being welcomed back.
WHAT TO WATCH FOR :
Leaning slightly forward, with ears pointed forward and up. |
Stiff, slow movements that include the tail held high. Long stares and refusal to break eye contact first. Growling from deep withing the body as opposed to a throat growl. Showing teeth. Hair on back standing up. Culing lip. Attempting to mount another dog. Attempting to mount people/legs Biting or snapping at the air. Snapping or snarling when being petted, groomed or lifted. Severe attacks on other animals such as cats or livestock. Frequent attempts to chase moving objects such as bicycles, skateboards, cars and trucks. Lunging. Blocking your path. Stiff facial expression. Flattened ears. General stiffness. Raised hackles. Straining against the leash to reach the other animal.
