Still, I want come here and blame the media, who needs sensationalism to sell their papers. I want blame extremists, who use the humane movement to catapult themselves to personal wealth and international recognition. I want blame a breed of dog or hold a type of person who owns this breed responsible. I will hold myself accountable and move forward to be proactive to help dogs and their owners better adjust to society. You see if we, as a group, spend our time rushing around to put out a fire each time it starts, we will never solve our problems.
Reactionary people are the most inefficient.
We need to start educating ourselves on how to control a dog - now. We need to be true to ourselves and acknowledge how much dog we can handle for the life of that dog, as opposed to how much dog we can handle under our current situation. We must ensure that after the formal course has ended, the dogs are still maintained. It isn't enough to get CGCs and Temperament Test our dogs to prove they are safe. It is just a good start.
