Resource guarding can be defined as a dog’s use of avoidance, threat, or aggressive behaviors to retain possession of a valued resource, such as food or non-food items, in the presence of a person or another animal. It is a common issue among dogs and can manifest in various behavioral ways. This behavior is sometimes referred to as possessive aggression and can pose a significant risk of injury when directed towards humans or other animals. Resource guarding has a detrimental impact on the human-animal bond and the dog’s social interactions with other animals. Join Debbie Martin as she explores resource guarding, prevention strategies, prevention training, and treatment recommendations. In this session, Debbie Martin will primarily focus on dogs guarding food or toys from people, exploring resource guarding, prevention strategies, prevention training, and treatment recommendations.
