Mistakes That Could Shorten Your Dog’s Life

#30 Not Heeding Aggressive Behavior

Displaying aggressive behavior is not uncommon amongst dogs. Smaller breeds are famous for their spunky nature compared to their larger docile counterparts.

If left unchecked, this kind of behavior may escalate to continual anti-social behavior which can be unsafe for outsiders. These dogs may snarl, growl, chase, and even bite others, causing mild to serious injuries. It is seriously challenging if a dog with this kind of behavior is around a family with kids.

It is important to assert a certain amount of dominance over them to help them react calmly towards strangers and reduce social tension.
