You're now an adult and although I assume you were smacked when you were younger that does not mean it's for everybody. How would you like a punch to the face every time you're having a bad day? Smacking your kids.... pfft, educate your kids.
Hahaha righto mate, My pups love me, they also respect me. They are hunting/working dogs and they have a much better live than most pussy little handbag dogs that people have these days. That's abuse if you ask me, my dogs get to do what they are meant to do. They are pack animals and they NEED an alpha so if you think its abuse you must be one of the teens the OP is talking about.
I don't have kids but I'm not going to get in someones business because they give their child a little smack on the bum or yell at them to stop being a little shit, like I said If the child was being hurt I would do something. But you guys are just PC whiney bitches
No, I do agree with you. I interpreted your previous post wrongly. It came across that you had kids and that it was a real common occurrence that you'd smack them.
Somebody who gets to the root of why this thread was written.
There was a woman here a few years back would be harsh sometimes and let the dog do anything it wanted the rest of the time. The dog decided it would be alpha and scalped her, took ages for the cops to get near it and it needed a bullet as it was protecting its kill. Probably would be somewhere in google land
I think parents are getting worse.
Depending on what "harsh" is classified as, I think if she truly abused the animal then she learnt the hard way sadly. If she was simply trying to teach the animal and it required a little harshness then I am horrified that she had to experience when an animal goes angry even without being provoked as many do...
Animals are completely capable of learning without "harshness." Violent dogs are made, not bred.
From what I remember she didn't train the dog at all and it was very aggressive, she let it go on so its sad but she kinda made it happen.
Yup. There's no denying many breds are more violent by nature. Now I'm not saying it's impossible to train a dog to behave but it's harder for some species. I'd rather have an intelligent german shepherd than a more aggressive pitbull. And no I'm not stereotyping.. I could have easily said a chihuahua.. But nobody would take me seriously.
Fox terriers and jack russels are awesome pig dogs strangely enough, chihuaua not so sure.......
This is when I can fully agree to you.
