Thanks for the quote.
Herding dogs were bred to herd. They’ll herd small children or ducklngs if they can’t get sheep.
Retrieving dogs will retrieve. They’ll find something.
Fighting dogs were bred to fight and kill, yet somehow many assume that this instinct is not as deeply embedded as are the behaviors of the other working breeds.
We used to have a Rotty, which isn’t even exactly a fighting breed, and she was the sweetest thing in the world. But the couple of times she got the impression that some member of her “pack” was threatened, she became a different animal. One less then completely welcome guest barely made it out the door before she would have started disassembling him
People do the same things with wolves. Putting a studded collar on a wolf and calling it “Fido” doesn’t turn it into a suitable pet.
