Dog Aggression: 7 Warning Signs You Can’t Ignore, with Dr. Jim Crosby

What if you could tell the difference between a worried dog and a dog who is one step away from biting? Most people think aggression “comes out of nowhere,” but in reality, dogs are almost always telling us what is coming next, we just do not know how to read it. In this episode, I talk with canine aggression expert Dr. Jim Crosby about what aggression really is, why it exists, and how to recognize the early signals before things escalate. We also dig into the tough side of this work, including what happens when those warnings are missed and serious injuries or fatalities occur. BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER: -----What aggression is and is not, and why thinking of it as a “bad dog problem” keeps everyone less safe -----The real reasons dogs use aggression and how it functions as a communication tool, not just an “explosion” -----Specific body language and behavior changes that often show up long before a bite -----What happens when we ignore or misread those signs, including real cases of severe and fatal dog attacks Jim has investigated -----How to start responding to early warning signs in a way that protects both people and dogs -----Why some “no kill at all costs” approaches in shelters and rescues can accidentally put communities at risk -----Practical steps you can take right now to improve safety in your home, rescue, or shelter This episode is a must-listen if you live with dogs, work with rescue animals, or just want to feel more confident reading canine body language and keeping everyone safer. OTHER NOTES FROM THIS EPISODE Topics include dog aggression, bite investigations, shelter and rescue policies, and real world examples of what happens when we listen to dogs, and when we do not.
