Über Statusaggression

Immer wieder begegnet man im Hundetraining dem Begriff "Statusaggression". Der Hund, so die geläufige Definition, wolle seinen Rang oder Status mittels Aggressionsverhalten verteidigen oder gar ausbauen.Doch gibt es sowas wie Statusaggression bei Hunden überhaupt? Zeigen Hunde status-bezogenes Aggressionsverhalten auch gegenüber Menschen? Und ist Statusaggression wissenschaftlich fundiert?Diese Fragen (und weitere) versuche ich in dieser Folge von Rund um Hund zu beantworten.QUELLENAbrantes, Roger.
