NO there lays the biggest problem in all of this. It is too easy to slap the owners with the blame..
Ok hang on...yup you bet the owners need to soicalize and train and all the good things for dogs but what if it is gene pool.... I know you do not like me talking science but there is a study I am watching on tests being done that follow gentic fear marks and most aggression is fear in sevearl purebreed dogs lines..yes I offer my girl.
Lines of dogs have these markers running through them and if you do not know you can not do an end run around it until it is to late. So just like LP or LS or hip dysplaxi ok that is not splet right and spell check does not like it either. You have to breed it out...No way am I blaming breeders for that which is just starting to be understood. This is why understanding the science is so important. I also know you hate it when I say it but CM is old science he does not get the genetics or the chemical end he blames it on the owners...easy out.
It is far from easy.
