Can you train aggressiveness out of dogs?

Do you even Cesar Millan bro?

Get a shock collar and zap his arse any time he shows any aggression.

If you’re an alpha, dogs will bow down and learn their place. They’re not going to cower or show respect to you if you’re a pussy.

I don’t know you or your dog, but don’t take your aggressive dog to the dog park until you’ve broken him/her of that.

Yes. Ours was veey aggressive and possessive of me and food. We used Joseph James with Professional k9 Solitions out of NOLA

Can this be accomplished? Food aggression or aggression towards people/other animals?

I'm the alpha but when I'm not home he tends to jack with the other animals.

Don't leave feed when you're not home.

I think it will always linger beneath the surface. Amazing how many killer, uh, pit bulls (Freudian slip) never as much as scratch a flea before they latched on to the neck of a three year old and killed her.

nope, you can teach them to suppress the fear so they relax and dont feel threatened, and by default, that suppresses the aggression, but the instinct stays there just below the surface.

just like with pit bulls, no matter how sweet and gentle they act, they can flip a switch and revert to basic instincts at the drop of a hat

No but you can kick it out of them.

Are you trying to train your pitbull to babysit toddler?

For food aggression:
As a previous poster said leave it is good for this. Practice leave it with the food yourself then with another person. Once you have that down, do leave it then give a bit of food to the other animal. Keep a leash on your aggressive dog just in case. It should teach restraint with others present. If doing this with normal food doesn’t work, try special treats like dry freeze food.
With the info provided, that would be my suggestion.
Also, we don’t give my dog food until we instruct her to eat. She must be called, sit, then told ok. If you don’t do this, try this as well. You can try leave it with the food bowl after the dog gets used to being commanded when to eat.
In general, I suggest keeping a leash on your dog even in the house if it is aggressive. Consistency is key. Work on this every time you feed your dog. Maybe 30 minutes before breakfast and then 30 minutes before dinner.
