Title: Pet Aggressiveness/Friendliness
Post by: PlayLives on 2006 October 23, 20:46:10
Can you train a pet to be friendly towards everyone in the family, including other pets, but be aggressive towards strangers, or is the friendly/aggressive training all encompassing one way or the other?

I don't think so. You can praise them for "hostility towards others" or scold them for it, but there isn't any distinction in terms of who the "others" are.

So no true guard dogs then. Either they bark at everyone or no one at all.
