Sometimes they can behave aggressively and bark at the owner, which can cause confusion and anxiety.
We'll cover three main reasons why a dog might behave this way and give you some tips on how to solve the problem.
Illness or injury
If a dog suddenly starts barking and showing aggression towards its owner, this may be due to illness or injury.
The dog may feel discomfort or pain and therefore react aggressively to touching or attempts by the owner to examine it.
If you notice your dog showing signs of illness or injury, contact your veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment.
Stress or fear
A dog may bark and show aggression towards its owner if it is stressed or afraid.
This may be caused by a change in environment, moving, a new family member, loud noises, or other factors.
If you notice that your dog has become nervous and aggressive, try to eliminate the source of stress or help it adapt to a new situation.
Problems with training
A dog may bark and show aggression towards its owner if it is not trained enough or does not respect his authority.
In this case, it is necessary to conduct dog training aimed at strengthening the owner’s authority and teaching basic commands.
If you are not confident in your training skills, seek help from a professional trainer.
