Dog Aggression Training Perth
Aggression is one of the most serious and complex behaviour problems in dogs. At AABA, we provide expert assessment and evidence-based treatment for all types of canine aggression — from fear-based reactivity to severe bite cases requiring legal support.
Types of aggression we treat
Fear-based aggression
The most common form — dog feels threatened and uses aggression to create distance.
Territorial aggression
Defence of home, yard, car, or family members from perceived intruders.
Resource guarding
Protection of food, toys, bones, sleeping areas, or people.
Inter-dog aggression
Aggression directed at other dogs — familiar or unfamiliar.
Frustration-based aggression
Occurs when dog is prevented from accessing something desired.
Pain-related aggression
Response to pain or anticipated pain during handling or grooming.
Our approach to aggression
Aggression is functional — it serves a purpose for the dog. Understanding that function is the key to effective, safe treatment. We use structured behaviour assessment, functional analysis, and evidence-based modification protocols.
Every aggression case begins with a thorough assessment to identify triggers, severity, bite history, and prognosis. From there, we develop a tailored plan combining safety management, desensitisation, counterconditioning, and — where appropriate — veterinary medication support.
