I only can say you are absolutely right.But this changes nothing on the fact that ignorant people will keep dogs and that these people will probably get bitten.Nothing we can do about that exept:answer questions and try to limit the damage by educating these who are willing to listen.In an other thread I asked if it was worth all the effort and time, and the answers were pretty clear:yes it is.Sometimes when reading some posts my toes will cringle and my hair raise by such stupidity and lack of knowledge of the BASICS of dog behaviour.Some people use a dog as substitute for the human compagnonship and threat the dog as human.A lot of people want to keep a dog but few want to educate themselves of what a dog really is.Can you blame them??.A lot of hearsay and irrelevant "information" from family or friends will do.So the lucky ones (tor them and us) will land on sites like these and ask.With patience we try ato explain and with pain we see some off them get their beliefs.But at least we tried.
