    Get a real live trainer/behaviorist so you can have a one on one thing.

    Aggression isn’t something you want to mess with unless you are an experienced trainer. The dog needs to be desensitized to other dogs and the very best way to do that is in a controlled environment under the direction of a trainer that is experienced with aggressive dogs.
    So … find yourself a good trainer and make your goal to be able to pass the CGC (AKC Canine Good Citizen) test. If it’s not a real bad case of aggression, it can actually be dealth with and cured pretty quickly, but you need to have an experienced trainer see how bad the aggressive response is and guide you through dealing with it.
