Step 1 : Introduction to the question "5. What are the top basics to raising a non-aggressive dog?"
...1. A low-protein diet and confinement 2. Vet check-ups and good food 3. Isolation from strangers and regular exercise 4. Socialization and training Socialize your puppy or dog thoroughly to people of all ages, genders, races, and clothing. Socialize them to cats, other dogs, small animals, different environments, and different noises. Train your dog to be obedient and well-mannered. Be consistent and firm, but not harsh or overbearing. These are the top two things you can do with any dog to prevent aggression. But it's also important to make sure your dog is healthy by regular vet check-ups and vaccinations. Spay or neuter your dog. Exercise her regularly and feed her a balanced diet (one that's recommended by veterinarians is usually best).
