The best way to train a dog to accept being calmed down during aggressive behavior is through positive reinforcement and consistency. Use positive reinforcement such as rewarding good behavior or praising the dog when they act peacefully, this will encourage them to repeat that behavoiur in the future. Additionally, it is important to remain consistent with how you address their behaviour - the same approach should be taken each time you correct them. Finally, create a structured routine for your pup - exercise them regularly and make sure they have a comfortable place where they can rest away from all of the activity during quiet times of day. This will help reduce their overall energy levels and may diminish aggressive outbursts when they occur.
