Just a rant about an ignorant comment So, I called a local trainer out here to ask about an intro to agility for our 6 month pup. The woman who works for the trainer gave me some info and then asked me for some info about our pup. I told her that he has had a lot of obedience work and we are trying to decide what work path we would like to take him down, agility, protection, schutzhund, etc. She actually responded with, "Do you know what schutzhund is?" I of course said yes trying to brush off her comment but I wanted to say, "No, I just thought the name sounded cool!" Then she continued to say, "Well, I ask because, you know, schutzhund increases aggression in dogs!"
I politely told her that I disagreed, etc. I still have not heard back from the trainer she works for, but I can't wait to talk to her and see what she has to say about schutzhund and what her receptionist said to me.
