There is a difference between raising a protective dog and an aggressive dog. A
being around people and can tell when his family is being threatened. A dog learns to be protective by
spending lots of time with people and by learning to know and love his human family. When your dog
loves you and your family, he will want to protect you from harm.
Leaving a dog on a chain and ignoring him is how to raise an
distinguish between a threat and a family friend, because they are not used to people. Aggressive dogs
will attack anyone. They will attack children who wander into the yard, a policeman, the meter reader, the
mailman, other dogs, etc.
If your aggressive dog attacks someone in your yard or breaks loose from his chain and attacks, you are
in danger of being sued, prosecuted, and required to pay the medical bills of the injured person. Your dog
will probably be put to sleep if he attacks someone, even it the attacks occurs on your property.
In 2004 alone, chained dogs killed at least 6 children and seriously injured 21 children in the U.S.
