Common Dog Behavior Problems – #10: Aggression
Dog aggression is exhibited by growling, snarling, showing teeth, lunging and biting. It is important to know that any dog has the potential to become aggressive, regardless of breed or history. However, dogs with violent or abusive histories and those bred from dogs with aggressive tendencies are much more likely to exhibit aggressive behavior towards people or other dogs. Reasons for aggression are basically the same as the reasons a dog will bite or snap, but overall canine aggression is a much more serious problem. If your dog has aggressive tendencies, consult your vet first – it may stem from a health problem. Then, seek the help of an experienced dog trainer. Serious measures should be taken to keep others safe from aggressive dogs! In some cases, remote dog training collars can help to curb his aggression.
Common Dog Behavior Problems – #2: Chewing
Chewing is a natural action for all dogs – it’s just a part of the way they are wired. However, chewing can quickly become a behavior problem if your dog causes destruction. The most common reasons dogs to chew are as follows:
- Puppy Teething
- Boredom / Excess Energy
- Anxiety
- Curiosity (especially puppies)
Encourage your dog to chew on the right things by providing plenty of chew toys. Keep personal items away from your dog. When you are not home, keep your dog crated or confined to an area where less destruction can be caused. If you catch your dog chewing the wrong thing, quickly correct him with a sharp noise, or a remote dog training collar. Then, replace the item with a chew toy. One of the most important things you can do: make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise!

How does it work?
Used alongside your vocal training commands, your Canicom dog trainer assists you by transmitting a combination of beeps and electric impulses to your dog via the specially designed collar. The beauty of the system is not in its power (we recommend the minimum setting required to get attention) but in the immediacy of the command given. Corrective commands can be given immediately even though your dog is some distance away. As we all know: an immediate command is an effective command. As you progress your dog will learn to associate your trigger commands with the electric impulses. Eventually you will be able to reduce, then disable the impulses – using only the beep function. Finally you can dispense with the collar altogether. (As an alternative, a dummy collar can be used at this stage.)

Characteristics of Companion Dog Breeds
Companion Dog - Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
Every breed was created for a reason, and the companion dogs are no exception. Their job is to keep people company, perhaps the most important work a dog can do.
Some are miniaturized versions of working dogs, and some were created solely as beautiful lap dogs–but without exception, they are all dog. The tiniest of them have no idea that they aren’t as big or strong as other dogs, and they have the heart and courage of a Mastiff concealed in their small bodies.
That’s an endearing quality, but it also means they need to be protected from themselves. Often they’ll take on bigger dogs or even human intruders and can easily be injured or killed for their trouble. This is where it is sometimes necessary to use a remote dog training collar.
In size they range from tiny four-pounders to sturdier 20- to 40-pounders. As a group, they’re housedogs, unsuited to living outdoors. Their main goal in life is to be with their people, and they’ll wilt if left to themselves for long hours day after day.
