Dozer, I'm lost about who getting jumped in the Bronx? GS? I was joking about Petco sort of, based on what I've seen as true and now thinking numbers on it... how many Petco's are in your city? We have like 4 or so? They all have a Grooming staff of at least 5, I'd think more which is makes low ball 20 Groomers at Petco all trained by Petco. Petsmart same deal so now we are close to 40 groomers trained by Corporate Whores. The Independent Groomers in the Yellow pages are 7... Independent Groomers rarely staff here
I'm confused where you got all this hate towards me? The only thing I have come up with is you have been claiming to be a Dog Trainer leaving out you don't train them do shit except attack? I hope not but if so I will listen if you want to explain why training dogs to attack is of benefit to anything other than your wallet. Ask Bobby Brown's Daddy if he taught him to attack? Then ask him if he is worried Bobby wouldn't protect him or his property? Rotties, Dobies and Pitts off the top of my head are naturally loyal protective and strong, you don't TRAIN them to attack that is how it comes to be people Fear the sweet babies, why everyone's barking I'M crazy to approach a strange dog; from Assholes training them that to be mean and aggressive is expected. It is terribly sad and unneccessary as well as harmful to those who love these feared breeds. If anyone out there believes an animal will naturally attack you for no reason for simply for walking onto it's property or up to it you are completely wrong. I'm talking about people falsly believing any dog was Born Mean and not Taught Mean. For example, Cruel inbreeding is a factor in Mean Pitts, but not the ultimate and singular cause. Pitts are Huge Pleasers, Praise Motivated they live to make their masters happy just as much as my Golden does and when they have a sick twisted fuck as a master they work really hard at pleasing him too, it's purely environmental!
Now so's not to hear from the peanut gallery: Not All Pitts, Rotties and Dobies are Sweet Babies so don't think I'm advocating everyone to go to their neighborhood dog fighting establishment and bring home the biggest meanest one and that instantly it'll be a great pal for your toddler. If you do however care to approach what seems like a friendly or unfriendly pooch, slowly approach with similiar body language you'd use if approaching a frightened child with one hand slightly raised, palm up. Make sure your hand is Not higher than it's head! You are doing this to allow him to sniff your hand, respectfully making his acquaintance. If he growls and snaps, he doesn't want to be bothered. If this goes well you can slowly raise your hand above its head to pet it. This was taught to me at age 3 and should be to every child yet I've seen little evidence.
I'm at a loss on how to train humans!
