    Socialization and positive dog training starting during puppyhood is an important factor in preventing aggressivity in dogs. Socialization should begin during the first four weeks of puppyhood, and teaches pups to trust people, other dogs and animals, and to become accustomed to new noises and environments. Dogs are very social animals. Between 3-8 weeks, pups will tend to focus on other dogs for social interaction. Between 5-12 weeks of age, puppies will then shift their focus on people. Puppies are very receptive to learning about new environments and situations up until 20 weeks. They also will continue learning throughout their lifetime. Pups should never be isolated from people and other dogs during puppyhood. Those that have been isolated,will later demonstrate fear aggression and underdeveloped social skills.Positive puppy training classes combined with plenty of socialization allow for all dog breeds to have a more fulfilling life. It tends to prevent behavioral problems. That said,punishment is not the answer to aggression. Dog parents with aggressive dogs should seek a behavior modification program for their dogs. As usual, it’s always best to consult with your veterinarian to rule out any medical problems that may trigger off aggressivity.
