Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Think you are about 7 years late, but take him to a good dog trainer if you can't train him yourself!.

It might cost a bit, but to have a well trained dog is of benefit to you!.

You owe it to the dog and everybody that he meets!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'd re-post to under Pets, then Dogs not History to get the most answers!. also, add more information - have you always owned this dog!? Intact or neutered!? Recent examples of aggression - IE my girlfriend came to my house and the dog nipped her as she walked by - no provocation!. OR a bunch of friends were rough-housing and he got excited and then barked & lunged wildly!.

So - even at 7 - a dog can be trained!. (You CAN teach an old dog new tricks - unlike the old wives' tale) I would take him to obedience class!. If intact - neuter him even at this age!. Depending on the level of aggression - get a private assessment/lessons from an obedience instructor!. If something in particular really riles him up - try to remove or limit that in his environment!.

Would love to know more so we can give you a better answer!. Re-post under Pets, Dogs and the community will respond!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

For tens of thousands of years, humans have domesticated the animal!. Dogs like that need to be put down!. He's had a 7 year life!. Let him go!.

Or you could confine him to an unpleasant cage!.

Or you could read Cesar Milan's book and he'll have some ideas!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
