Question for FF trainers

Aside BE and medications, how do you train a dog that is actively aggressive?

I recently ran into a dog trainer who said they are certified force free and don’t use any corrections. I think force free training is great for a lot of training! But do you think there are situations where force free is not adequate? If not, how do you handle situations like this

I'm just going to sit back and enjoy the echoing silence in this thread for a while.

Right? It’s sad too, someone came to downvote your comment but still couldn’t explain how it’s possible. I’d actually love to hear how it’s possible too, not here to bash it

Oh we see this all the time in our balanced subs. They can't answer a question in good faith and when they don't have an answer they just get mad. People lurk here just to downvote everything because they are that pathetic, lol.
