DOG AGGRESSION

🦴 Real Results — Real Dogs

Over four decades, I’ve successfully worked with:

  • Dogs with a history of biting

  • Dogs that can’t go near other dogs

  • Dogs reactive to children, men, or strangers

  • Rescue dogs with trauma

  • High-drive working breeds

  • Small dogs who show outsized reactivity

Whether your dog’s aggression is mild or severe, structured behaviour modification works.

Dog Aggression Specialist Melbourne

40 Years’ Experience • Trainer of the Year 2025

Dog aggression is one of the most misunderstood behavioural issues in dogs — and one of the most common. For over 40 years, I’ve worked hands-on with more than 45,000 dogs across Melbourne, specialising in all forms of aggression including:

  • Dog-to-dog aggression

  • Human-directed aggression

  • Territorial or protective aggression

  • Resource-guarding

  • Fear-based aggression

  • Anxiety-driven reactivity

  • Redirected aggression

  • Leash aggression

Every dog is different — and so is every cause. My job is to uncover why the behaviour exists, address the underlying emotional state, and guide you and your dog safely back to balance.

Dog Play Can Lead To Aggression

🧠 Aggression Is a Symptom — Not the Root Problem

Dogs rarely become aggressive “for no reason.”
The cause is almost always:

  • Fear

  • Anxiety

  • Uncertainty

  • Lack of structure or leadership

  • Previous trauma

  • Mixed messages from the owner’s energy

  • Genetics or breed sensitivity

Aggression is the dog’s final line of communication when all other signals have been ignored or misunderstood. My role is to bring clarity, calm, and a structured plan to help both you and your dog feel safe again.

Understand Dog Aggression

🐾 A Personalised, Balanced Approach

As a balanced behaviourist, I use fair, calm, clear and structured communication, never relying on treats alone or harsh corrections.
You’ll learn:

  • How to stop the aggressive behaviour safely

  • How to change the emotional trigger behind the behaviour

  • How to walk your dog calmly without fear

  • How to handle triggers such as dogs, people, bikes, visitors

  • How your energy, posture, timing, and mindset influence your dog

  • How to prevent aggression from returning

Your dog learns exactly what behaviour is expected — and what behaviour is not.
