What are some good tips on training my dog to socialize?

Ok well my dog is a mix between min-pin and pomarainen. I used to be about to take her out to ball games and let her hang out with me outside without a leash. But now shes not a puppy adn shes 2 years old. When I take her out I have to take her on a leash or she will attack the everyone she sees even animals. And I have to lock her up in her kennnel when people come over because she will attack then adn bark at them! My lil brother got a hair cut and it took her forever to get used to him I want to be able to show her off again to the world but I cant when she acts this!! What do I do??

Answer #1

A good trick is to give the person the dog doesnt know very well a treat to give to the dog and keep doing this with random people to keep it mixed up, also try a water bottle filled with water and squirt it at the dog when it is aggressive and tell it no in a deep angry voice and it should get the idea eventually lol x

Answer #2

ooo SMACK IT no no don’t do that unless you want to get a hand bit off

you can put it in a dog training program.you can try to teach it to be more gentle. like have someone get close to it and when it get mean kinda spank it or something ( just don’t get maul to death by it).
