The indisputable fact that a dog is man's best friend will not be refuted in this article.
The history of dog breeding has recorded numerous cases of selfless devotion by dogs, even to the point of self-sacrifice.
Dogs have been alongside humans for many centuries, serving, guarding livestock, helping with hunting and being excellent companions.
However, in the course of improving certain breeds of dogs intended for guarding and protection, aggression has become their natural behavior. This fact must be taken into account when acquiring a puppy, especially for families with children.
A serious dog requires serious training
Before getting a boxer, Pres Canario, Doberman Pinscher or Rottweiler, you should ask the kennel club about special training courses. Owners of Malamutes, German Shepherds, Akita Inus, Chow Chows and Eskimo Laikas should take obedience courses with their pets.
The above breeds have sufficient intelligence. They are devoted to the owner. They have a good memory and attention. All this should be used for training with a large number of exercises. It is necessary to train both in a group with a professional instructor and independently.
Puppies willingly follow the owner's commands, and this is the key to mutual understanding between man and animal. Care, persistence, approval and affection will give a good result. Only with the correct upbringing of the puppy, the owner will get an adequate dog, unconditionally recognizing the authority of the owner.
The most dangerous breed
Particular attention should be paid to the American Pit Bull Terrier breed. These fighting dogs are specially bred for fighting.
The dogs are distinguished by their fighting spirit and aggressiveness. Despite their relatively small size and weight, danger is genetically embedded in them. They are fearless. The grip of a pit bull is deadly. An adult dog is periodically in search of a fight, and its attack is absolutely hopeless for the victim.
The attack risk from dogs of this breed is more than 6 times greater than that from a Rottweiler, and more than 30 times greater than that from a German Shepherd or Canary Dog.
Therefore, before getting a serious dog, you need to think carefully about your responsibility to others, to family members and to the puppy you are buying.
