An independent resource, not a training company
My Dog Is Aggressive publishes practical, plain-English guides on dog aggression and reactivity: safety, causes, management, muzzle training and finding qualified veterinary and behavior professionals. We are not a dog training business, we don't employ trainers, and we don't hold ourselves out as behavior professionals. Our goal is simple: give dog owners accurate, well-organized information, and make it easier to find qualified local help.
How referrals work. If you fill out a request form, we may pass your details to independent local trainers or training programs that might be able to help. Those businesses are separate from us and are responsible for their own services, pricing, credentials and results. We don't guarantee that any trainer will contact you, be available, or be the right fit, so please do your own due diligence before hiring anyone.
How we make money. This site may earn compensation from trainers or programs we refer you to, and from affiliate links to products. Neither affects the accuracy of our guidance, and you are never charged for requesting a referral.
Our editorial approach
- We favor reward-based, science-informed training and explain why.
- We cite widely accepted guidance (veterinary behavior organizations, federal ADA guidance, local government pages) and link to primary sources where we can.
- We flag what we don't know, and tell you when to see a veterinarian or credentialed behavior professional.
- We update guides when facts, rules or local details change. Spot an error? Let us know.
Use the form on any page to reach us.
You don't have to figure this out alone.
Tell us what's happening. There's no judgment here. If you'd like, we'll pass your request to independent behavior professionals near you who work with aggression and reactivity. It's free and confidential on our end, and you're under no obligation.
- No judgment, ever
- Free to request, no obligation
- Independent behavior professionals, not affiliated with this site
- If someone is in immediate danger, call 911
