Course Overview
Dog aggression can be serious and unpredictable—especially when it leads to people suffering injuries or animals being harmed. This course is designed to help dog owners, trainers, and animal care professionals manage aggressive behaviours and prevent situations where dogs may become dangerously out of control.
In this certified training, you’ll learn to recognise warning signs, address triggers, and use behaviour-focused strategies to prevent and reduce dog attacks. Whether you’re working with strong breeds, anxious dogs, or XL Bully dogs, the course provides clear, structured guidance to improve control and safety.
Built around real-world scenarios and expert advice, this course offers practical insight into managing dangerous dogs and supporting safer environments for dogs and people alike. You’ll also gain skills in emergency response and learn how to act when incidents happen.

I found the courses very informative so far. A care is the first platform I am writing a review for. To the newbies- before taking an online course try to gather some info about the provider, a professional platform with top accreditation will be a good choice.
