How do we control a reactive and aggressive boston terrier who has no problem with conflict? Patience. Calm energy. It's quite common for some dogs to have behaviors that require more work than just correcting the behavior out of them. I would argue it's more common than not. Almost never can we correct aggression out of a dog.
We can however lead the dog. Set the dog up for success until we build a better relationship with the dog and we can communicate more clearly. I don't have any sort of relationship with Mahoney at this point so I only have him around the easiest dogs that I have.
