[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The biggest problem I see is that the least aggressive dogs are also the most high needs. They were specifically bred to be with a family or involved in retrieving. Any ancestors that showed aggression were not bred but bull breeds were [b]only[/b] bred if they were aggressive.

My dog is a flat coated retriever, likely mixed but its possible she is pure bred. We got her from a local shelter. She is very high needs for exercise attention and can suffer from separation anxiety. This breed was super popular in the early 1900s because it was such a good family dog but it needs to exercise and desires people to be around and most families dont have this type of structure anymore so they fell out of popularity. [b]In the US and UK there is not a single record of aggression or biting from a flat coated retriever[/b].

Its considered the Peter Pan of dogs. More popular in Europe.

She greats everyone who comes in with a toy. She is amazing with children. She wants to join at drop off and pickup. She loves hiking and swimming. We had to put a lot of training in from the beginning and then since year 1 its been smooth sailing.

Their population size, in comparison to those of the most popular dogs, is exceedingly small.  Popularity is the curse of dogs; random people start breeding them without consideration for health and temperament, and it leads to problems down the road.[/quote]
