Then you may never have had to turn a dangerous dog into a pet. I have.
Sometimes you do have to get a rough to get the dog to their place in the pack.
I try to do it with a lead and collar rather than my hands, I don't like to
get bit. But if I can't reason, and I can't muscle MY way into a dog's pack,
or if I don't think a dog will be trained by it's owners, I will recommend
putting the dog down, and I have.
Caeser probably does not show the easy dogs, not much to see. But a difficult
dog that takes some drama to realign in the pack, that is worth the effort and
expense of filming. It's for the drama. I am always glad when I don't have to
get dramatic. But it happens.
And sometimes, the people can't do what it takes or the dog is too old and too
far into being alpha, there is nothing to be done. It is individual and very
hard to decide what to do. I don't do or say anything lightly.

canceled, he will do just fine. Because what he does works and it speaks
the language that the dog understands.
