Recommended Answer:
I would teach him to sit by you and bark on command instead. To him that would be a fun trick, and he isn't getting aggressive. To others trying to harm you, that barking might keep them away. The problem is he is only about 20 pounds at the most and I think if someone really wanted to harm you, your dog couldn't stop it. Personally I think a really well trained, never leave your side dog is more threatening than a dog that is running around trying to attack everything.
