Dogs wouldnt be regarded as mans best friend for nothing! Indeed, they are surely the best buddy to have because of their loyalty and dedication to their masters. They are also a good source of relaxation to free you from the stress brought by the conflict of work and home affairs. They are naturally playful and fun to be with; nevertheless, they have the affinity to be destructive too.

There is a misconception among owners that dogs behave such ways because they often leave them alone at home when they are at work therefore giving the dog all the freedom to do any destructive act that they want to. But according to dog trainers and dog behaviorist, such notion is erroneous. Instead, they argue that the reason why your pet behaves in that way is because dogs naturally possess a lot of energy and poor exercise can lead to such destructive behavior.

As a result, it is highly important that an owner is sensitive enough to the need of their dogs because if not, it will lead to certain emotional problems such as dog aggression and anxiety. Basically, dog aggression is the term employed by owners to describe canine-to-canine antagonism or canine to human antagonism.

Aggression is defined by dog behaviorist as "intent to do harm which is obvious in their excessive barking, howling, growling or snapping in the air which is known as distance-increasing actions that is notable among pets that frequently move away from other dogs. In case of dog to dog aggression, a dog that is remarkably aggressive in nature will lead the dog to hurt the other dog in case they see that they have no other alternative. But it should be remembered that there are also dog which experience dog aggression because of hormonal imbalances that needs medical concern.

On the other hand, another problem is anxiety in dogs which bring out the worst among them. There is a lot of explanation behind such condition and the most common is separation anxiety which may explain why dogs that are left out of the house alone would usually do destructive acts like urinate, spoil furniture, and breaks appliances.

Keep in mind that dogs longed for affection and care and their destructive nature should not be construed as revenge instead it is only their way of telling their extreme disproval of being left alone. Moreover, anxiety in dogs can also be brought upon by other circumstances. There are some dogs which may repulsively reacts when there are too many people around and although when they are trapped in such kind of condition, they have the tendency to run away, there are also some who would act unpleasantly. Another reason of anxiety in dogs is the presence of loud noises.

Indeed, dog aggression and anxiety are two problems that should be corrected right ahead because if not, the problem may worsen which can be irritating on your part and saddening for the dog. Often times, when the owners decide to do dog training for the problems that the pet is confronting is too late for these problems to correct.
