While dogs barking due to aggression may look similar to aggression, this type of attack bites for a different reason and requires a different remedy. Dogs who bark in fear are more sensitive than aggressive animals and prefer to curl up behind their owners' laps. This problem is often caused by insufficient social interaction among animals, but it can also be genetic.
