Expert Aggressive Dog Training in San Diego

Aggressive Dog Training

At Toko Dogs, we provide aggressive dog training to clients across San Diego who struggle to control their dogs’ dangerous behaviors. If your dog has shown aggressive behaviors towards people, dogs, or other animals we are here to help! We will get your dog from dangerous to safe using humane and effective strategies.

Why Choose Toko Dogs for Aggressive Dog Training?

Expertise Highlight

We are experts at working with aggressive dogs, having worked with some of the most dangerous dogs in San Diego. Some of our client’s dogs have mauled people or have killed other dogs and animals. In some cases, we were a dog’s last hope because their owner had been told their dog should be euthanized.

Approach

We show clients how to apply a holistic and balanced training strategy to dogs who exhibit aggressive behaviors. Dogs that exhibit these behaviors require a skilled trainer with a clear understanding of animal behavior, combined with the skills and knowledge to implement safe procedures, techniques, and management strategies.

Details of Aggressive Dog Training Programs

What to Expect

All dogs in our Aggressive Dog Training Program are required to go through either basic or advanced obedience training. Your dog will learn to engage and listen to both you and your trainer in controlled environments. After solidifying your dog’s obedience, we will begin working on your dog’s aggression by breaking their behaviors down into manageable pieces. Through consistent, appropriate, and humane use of tools and techniques, your dog’s behavior will become safe, manageable, and predictable at home and in public. As your dog shows understanding of expectations in controlled and semi-controlled settings, we will begin to directly address the behaviors that your dog exhibits. After training, you will have gained the confidence, knowledge, and skills to keep you, your dog, and others safe. Please note: While we can work with any dog, we cannot take on every case. If your dog has growled at or bitten a child under the age of 13 who lives in your home, we will be unable to provide a dog training program.

Duration

Our Aggressive Dog Training Programs typically last 6-10 sessions but can take longer. Your dog’s program includes one year of on-going support which includes in-preson check-ins, phone, and email support! We are here to ensure that the changes we make together through training are here to stay for the long-term!

FAQ

Can you guarantee that my dog will never bite or be aggressive again after training?

Any dog, regardless of breed, gender, age, behavioral history, and training can bite. The success of any dog’s training is based upon a number of factors, some of which are out of our control, including the owner’s commitment to consistent training. Consequently, it would be misleading for Toko Dogs to indicate that we can guarantee success.

Will my dog be able to go to a dog park after training?

We never recommend taking your furry friend to a dog park regardless of their behavioral issues. While the idea of a dog park is great, the reality is that dog parks can be a dangerous melting pot of bad behaviors. Exposing your dog to this environment allows them to learn to replicate these bad behaviors, as well as expose your dog to unsafe and high risk situations. We have met plenty of owners whose dogs have killed or been killed by another dog at a dog park. In our opinion, dog parks are not worth the risk and are not a recommended method of socialization.
