[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suspect that OP’s dog has not bitten anyone- if so, OP would have included that in their post instead of vaguely saying “behavioral issues.” [/quote]

You don't need to wait until it's a bite incident. Aggressive behavior (snarling, baring teeth, snapping at people/other dogs) is easy enough to spot. Waiting until someone has gotten hurt is idiotic. Most people aren't equipped to properly handle aggressive dogs and it ends in tragedy. Acting like you have to wait until the dog bites a human or another dog is crazy.

Aggressive animals should be put down. Zero shame. There are plenty of non-aggressive animals.[/quote]

Actually things like snarling and bearing teeth are a good sign for aggression. The dog is giving warnings and trying to avoid biting. Dogs who bite out of nowhere are far more dangerous, and dogs who give signs of upset and distress are unlikely to bite out of nowhere. [/quote]

Zero dogs "bite out of nowhere". Plenty of owners don't know how to read their dog's body language and respond appropriately, and way too many people know way too little about how to properly handle their dogs in general.
