Aggressive Dogs II is a course designed to provide professional dog trainers, shelter workers, vet techs, rescues, groomers, and enthusiasts with critical information and understandings of dogs that exhibit and act out aggression against humans, dogs, and other animals and objects. 

This course is the next in a series of working with aggressive dogs. This series provides a deeper understanding of the causes, actions and behaviors, physical movements as well as signals and communications of intent. Not only will you have the opportunity to learn in depth aspects of dog behavior and motivations, additionally the methods to mitigate and solve the problems, yourself, of both short-term and long-term aspects of behavior modifications.

You will also have the ability to acquire a knowledge of levels of aggressive behaviors and intent, how to keep yourself and others safe, and begin an understanding of when, what, where, how and why to solve, not just manage aggression. Aggression is an intent and acted upon behavior, many times separate from “reactivity”.
