			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Take action when your dog&#8217;s biting is too aggressive.When play-biting becomes hurtful, responsible owners must investigate the cause of this behavior.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You would also want to see <a target="_blank" href="http://www.dogsbehaving.com/secrets-to-dog-training-review.php">Review Secrets To Dog Training Review</a>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Make Sure the Problem is Behavioral.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>When it is apparent your dog has a biting problem, eliminate the possibility of the cause being physiological before beginning behavior modification.To accomplish this task, have a vet do a thorough physical inspection of your pet.Labwork, including a CBC, a thyroid panel and serum chemistry test, can eliminate chemical imbalances that could explain the aggressiveness.Your vet is the right person to help if the biting is due to chemical imbalances.Prescirption or some procedure can correct your dog&#8217;s behavior.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>When you&#8217;re definite it&#8217;s not a physiological defect, begin behavior modification to change your dog&#8217;s dog behavior.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hire a Professional or Train Him Yourself?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Consider a couple of things to help you resolve the dilemma:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Your willingness to meet the challenge.Are you willing to work with your dog and do whatever it takes to change this negative behavior? You&#8217;d be putting in an hour daily for weeks or months to achieve results.You might to sign up for an online dog-training course.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The concerns your dog gives rise to.If your dog is still a mere puppy, you&#8217;d be able to control him better.Smaller dogs are easier to manage than adult dogs; they&#8217;re also not as dangerous because they are not as strong.Owners have been brought to court or their furry friends been put down for harming others.</p>
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p>Alter Behavior with Positive Reinforcement.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Positive conditioning is the standard approach to behavior modification.If you&#8217;re familiar with this term in human psychology, you won&#8217;t be surprised to learn it&#8217;s used in dog psychology as well.After all, humans appreciate canine intelligence.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Basically, positive pre-conditioning in dogs works like it does in humans.Being praised for behaving well reinforces the behavior.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Consider play-biting in little doggies.Look keenly and notice the puppies are on to each other for mommy&#8217;s nipples.Soon, a pup cries in pain and turns away from the game.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A puppy abandons his fellow pups is pre-conditioning at its finest.The puppy leaving the game tells his fellows the game has gone too rough and that biting hard is hurting him.The pup who bit him learns that the game ends when he bites aggressively; it proceeds if he doesn&#8217;t bite too hard.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When your dog bites aggressively, take it under control.When dogs bite fiercely, look into the possibility of behavior modification being an approriate corrective approach.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Make Sure the Problem is Behavioral.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>When your dog bites aggressively, ensure yourself that the cause is not a physical defect before starting behavior modification.To carry out this task, have a vet do a thorough physical inspection of your pet.Labwork, including a CBC, a thyroid panel and serum chemistry test, can eliminate chemical imbalances that could explain the aggressiveness.Your vet is the right person to help if the biting is due to chemical imbalances.A treatment can effectively stop your dog&#8217;s aggressiveness.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>When you&#8217;re sure it&#8217;s not a physiological defect, begin behavior modification to change your dog&#8217;s dog behavior.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Your Responsibility or A Professional&#8217;s?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Consider two things to help you decide:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Your readiness for handling the process.Would you do what need to be done to turn this behavior around? You&#8217;ll need to spend quality time with your dog daily over several weeks, maybe months to do this.You amy even have to learn dog training with an online course.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The dangers your dog poses.If your dog is a pup, you can control him easily.Puppies are easier to manage than adult dogs; they&#8217;re also not as dangerous because they are not as strong.Masters have been sued and their pets put down for causing trouble with other people.</p>
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p>Behavior Modification Through Positive Pre-Conditioning.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Positive pre-conditioning is the guideline used in the various techniques to behavior modification.If you&#8217;ve heard of the term in human physiology classes, you don&#8217;t find it surprising it&#8217;s used in odg behavior also.After all, people understand dog intelligence.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Basically, positive reinforcement in dogs is the same as the human concept.Praising excellent behavior calls for repeating the behavior.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Think about nipping in puppies.Look closely and you&#8217;ll see young pups biting each other to complete for mommy&#8217;s nipples.Soon, a puppy yelps in pain an shuns the game.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This behavior of a pup abandoning play with his playmates shows pre-conditioning at its best.The puppy who turns away from his playmates is telling them the play&#8217;s no longer fun and that biting aggressively is totally unacceptable.The rambunctious pup learns fun stops when he bites too hard; it continues if he keeps it playful.</p>
