I have and that is why I have studied many of the different methods out there because I have dogs that bite first and ask questions later...this is what abuse will do to a Yorkie. If I did the things he does to my biters I would be destroying these dogs. I know it for a fact...I do not believe in flooding, I don't believe in choke collars, prong collars etc because dogs are dogs no matter the size and I don't think you can have different standards based on the size of the dog. I don't believe in the Alpha role because I don't believe in that theory because they have proven it is bunk.
If you worked with a fear aggressive dog you would understand why what he did to that Akita was what I consider abuse. I consider it abuse to chain a dog in the backyard (state laws don't) I consider it abuse to keep a dog locked up in a kennel only large enough to move around in (state laws don't) I consider it abuse to keep pumping out puppies year after year (state laws don't)..I could go on with the list of things that I believe are abuse ..
