How To Train A Dog To Attack
Introduction
Do you want a dog that can protect your home from intruders? If so, then it’s important that you teach him how to attack on command. This is a dangerous thing to do and should only be taught to dogs with a very solid background in basic obedience. Teaching your dog to attack on command will make for a much more secure animal, but it can also be dangerous if he doesn’t learn when not to attack . . . or if you don’t learn when not to tell him to.

This is a dangerous thing to do and should only be taught to dogs with a very solid background in basic obedience. It requires an understanding of the dog’s personality, training history and medical history. Additionally, you need to know your dog’s emotional state when it comes time for this training.
This is how I would train my own dog:
- Take the collar off your dog until he’s calm
- Place him on his side with his head turned away from you or in other words, keep him looking away from you as much as possible during this first part of the training session
- Say “attack” (or whatever word works for your dog) then walk away so that he does not associate being released from his down position with feeling free to attack anyone who comes near him
Teach the dog to bark on command.
You can teach the dog to bark on command by saying “bark” or another word that you choose. Once your dog barks, reward him with a treat. The treats should be given immediately after the barking and praising of your dog. It is important that you only give treats after they have performed the desired action. If they are not rewarded for their actions, then they will not do it again.
After your dog knows how to bark on command, you need to teach him how to quiet down when asked for an attack or other commands such as sit or down-stay (when in position). This lesson starts by giving a release command such as “quiet” followed by praise when he has performed correctly followed by giving him a treat if he does so well at this new skill.
When the dog barks, praise.
When the dog barks, praise. This teaches the dog that it’s doing exactly what you want it to do when it barks. If your pet doesn’t bark, you can still reward its silence by giving it a treat or praising its good behavior with a pat on the head or rub on their belly.
It’s important that your pet has plenty of toys, chewable bones and other items around so they can entertain themselves when they’re indoors without having to resort to biting furniture or house guests (or people who don’t like being bitten).
When the dog stops barking, quiet it down
Once you have the dog barking at your command, keep in mind that it’s not a good idea to let it bark for too long. The dog will eventually get tired and might stop responding to the command. In order to prevent this from happening, always tell it to stop barking when you get tired of hearing its voice.
After the dog will bark for you reliably, introduce some “bad guys” for him to bark at.
Once your dog is reliable at barking on command and will stop when told to, you can begin training him to attack.
This article assumes that you have already trained your dog to attack men, women and children. If this has not been done yet, please review the previous section on how to train a dog to attack people and then start here.
First, introduce some “bad guys” for him to bark at. Each time he barks at them reward him with treats or praise. This will reinforce that it is good for him to expose these people as evil villains and should be rewarded if he does so because they are evil villains!
Put a muzzle on the dog so he can’t bite.
A dog should be muzzled when you are teaching him to attack. The muzzle is an important safety tool, and it can also prevent the dog from biting people. A muzzle should be made of leather or nylon, and properly fitted so that it does not interfere with the dog’s vision or breathing. Muzzles should only be used when needed, such as during training sessions involving biting exercises.
Let him see the bad guy. You want him to bark as much as possible when he sees them . . . as long as he’s wearing the muzzle.
The most important thing you can do is let him see the bad guy. You want him to bark as much as possible when he sees them . . . as long as he’s wearing the muzzle.
Then let him go nuts when they leave. That way, he’ll associate barking with something positive (their presence) and negative (their absence).
When the bad guy retires and goes somewhere else, you must quiet him down and stop rewarding his barking with attention.
When the bad guy retires and goes somewhere else, you must quiet him down and stop rewarding his barking with attention. If you don’t do this, he will keep barking at the bad guy when he’s gone and then start barking at other things. This will not be good for anyone involved.
You should also make sure that your dog does not bite the bad guy before or during his attack. This can be very dangerous for everyone involved, especially if there are other people around who may get hurt as well (such as yourself). Your dog should only attack from behind because it is safer for everyone involved plus it will prevent any injuries to either party.
Never let your dog off leash until he is under complete control and will not attack unless told to do so!
The most important thing to remember when training your dog to attack is that you never let him off leash until he is under complete control and will not attack unless told to do so. In order for a dog to be trained successfully, it needs to be consistent and repetitive in its behavior. A good way of accomplishing this is by using the same commands every time you want your dog to perform an action such as attack or defend itself. However, it’s important that these commands are kept short and simple so they can be easily remembered by both human and canine alike:
Attack-Attack!
Defend-Defense!
Conclusion
In conclusion, we’ve demonstrated how to teach a dog to attack. Although this is a useful skill and an excellent means of protection, it is not without its dangers. Never let your dog off the leash unless you are completely sure that he will obey all commands and never attack unless instructed to do so by his master.
