Default leash aggression !!!!!!!!!!!!!

my three year old doberman is the biggest baby at home...but when walking with him outside with the leash he is VERY aggressive, i do think it is because he is not very socialized with other dogs. He does well in dog parks ( i dont take him much because of his aggression) and does well with my other dog at home but it is just when he is on the leash he is VERY aggressive.

I live in canada toronto....and im planning to go to BRB K9 it is a dog training school...just wondering if you guys have heard of them ? or have better places to suggest ?

(training with no treats please =).....)

Default doesnt hurt to try

not sure if this will work or not for you but try leaving the leash on in the house. and periodically through out the day pick the leash up and walk around the inside of the house. do this for several weeks. if you have a yard, try it out in the yard after that. He just may not like the feel of the leash.If you are not training with treats make sure you are praising him a lot. Don't reprimand him more than once by saying no one time for the bad, focus on everytime he does good and give lots of praise.hope this helps.

Smile one more thing you can try

when it comes time to take him out for a walk, stay calm but assertive dont get frustrated breathe, when you are leaving the house make sure you walk out the door first, keep the leash short so he has to walk beside you, if you find he starts to pull then stop where you are make him sit and calm down then start out again. you do this also when you are walking past a dog. if he focuses on the dog give him a quick sharp but short jerk on the chain to redirect his attention. once you have his attention put a little slack back in the leash. when you have his attention then begin the walk again. I have found it easier to walk my pit with the leash up at the top of neck behind the ears.
If you do this training with both your dogs by keeping short leashes on them you will eventually be able to walk both dogs at the same time. If you want him to spend time sniffing or wondering then you tell him to sniff and give him more leash to do so, when he is done going potty or whatever rein him back in to a short leash

It is real important to make sure that he knows that you're the dominant one and in charge of the situation. If he is having trouble on walks, he is probably just frightened by being out of his comfort zone. If you talk control during the walks, he should become more submissive and have less issues with other animals.
