Twister, in no way was I directing this thread towards you. I was replying in response to blanket statements such as this:
If I had a human agressive dog it would be put down in a instant no and if's or buts.
Sorry, but my real life is not all back and white. The "if's and's or but's" are what make behavior so complex and make compassion/understanding so vital to the dog-human relationship. The statement insinuates that, if a dog displayed "human aggression", the dog would not be helped and would be destroyed immediately. Those are the comments to which I wrote this thread.
